Editorial feature

Thank you Caroline Kennedy, Editor-in-Chief at Gifts and Decorative Accessories, for featuring our Freesia note card in the Botanical Bouquet editorial this month. Very exciting! We agree that "flowers never seem to go out of style" and love offering a large selection of colorful botanicals for these wintry days.

Saxapahaw Holiday Market

The Saxapahaw Holiday Market this past weekend was a huge success! The ballroom looked beautiful and was decorated very festively. So many people came out (despite the cold) and everyone was very nice. The holiday spirit abounds! Thank you to everyone who stopped by my JAKE & META table.

Nov 23 Emerson Waldorf Holiday Faire

Come visit us this Saturday, November 23! The Emerson Waldorf Holiday Faire is this coming Saturday from 10:00am-3:00pm at 6211 New Jericho Road in Chapel Hill, just down the road from Allen and Son Barbeque (WELL worth a stop). It's free and on a school campus, so it's very child friendly and will include horse carriage rides. Plus, it's supposed to be warm(ish) again this weekend, in the mid 60s. Hope to see you there!

Opal innocence in March

March is here and spring's on the horizon with all of its beautiful flowers. Every image has a story, and this petite flower's is, "All these little blooms crowded together look as though they're clamoring for attention, with their moustached faces disguised as pink petals!" Note: calendars are now half off at JAKEandMETA.com.

Happy July!

We're kicking off this month with 10% off of our new letterpress flats. These stationery flats are letterpressed in a rich red on ecru-colored heavyweight paper. The duo set includes 3 fire hydrant images and 3 outdoor grill images, packaged in a dual-view vinyl sleeve (pictured here). They're great for thank-yous, invitations to a cookout, or as a host/hostess gift for that summer party. Promo code JulPROMO, now through July 31 on JAKEandMETA.com.

Father's Day: 10% off fish cards

We're offering a promotion this month for 10% off all fish cards; enter promotional code "JunPROMO" at checkout now through June 30. This offer comes just in time for Father's Day which is Sunday, June 17!

I began fishing with my father when I was 3 years old. This fish series was created as a birthday gift for him, most originating from simple black-and-white versions drawn years ago for a cookbook. These colorful renderings make the fish jump to life. A fabulous, unexpected gift for the man who has practically everything.
