About the maker

Idlewild Co. is a boutique paper goods & gift company founded in 2010 by artist & designer, Katie Gastley. What would become a nationally distributed stationery line began with a tiny pop-up at the Renegade Craft Festival in McCarren Park, Brooklyn. A few shoppers noticed her whimsically hand-painted Brooklyn neighborhood prints and asked if Katie would create wedding stationery based on the artwork- and shortly thereafter she was working on her first commissioned invitations. With a robust collection of hand-painted wedding suites under her belt, she expanded her work into a line of greeting cards and hand-bound notebooks. In 2013 Idlewild Co. relocated to the sunny shores of Vero Beach, Florida, where the team operates from today.
