This is Banded Arrow.
My name is Alyssa Nutile, and I run Banded Arrow. For as long as I could hold a crayon, I’ve been coloring, drawing, cutting, pasting, and creating. The idea for Banded Arrow originated while I ma jored in art in college. I could never find a stationery that felt like “me,” so I started making my own. I designed my own wedding invitations, which branched out into designing for other acquaintances. In 2014, I finally took the leap, bought a screenprinting kit, and started Banded Arrow officially. I love pretty colors and bold lines and shapes. I love cute patterns. And I value subtle beauty and simple pleasures above all else. These are the ideas Banded Arrow was born from. The idea that design doesn’t have to be fussy. That luxury is something you can feel, not just see. That a simple, handwritten note can warm a heart like little else. At Banded Arrow, every card is handmade, it’s own little work of art. Banded Arrow’s screenprinted paper goods have a soft texture and show more vibrant colors than other printing techniques. Each card is printed by hand in runs of 100 or less, and all cards are cut, scored, printed, folded, and assembled in the Banded Arrow home studio. I love paper and stationery, and I especially love little, beautiful notes. Thanks for helping Banded Arrow spread this love to others.
Why Screenprinted?
While often reserved for posters and fabrics, screenprinting creates extraordinarily rich colors and velvety textures for paper goods, not found with other printing techniques. The paint-like inks are mixed in-house allowing for amazing variety and control of the colors, and the opaque quality of the ink means it can be printed on all colors of paper (like bright red or dark purple). This means that screenprinted paper goods are hardly ever limited by the materials, only by the imagination! 2 | www.bandedarrow.com
