I grew my business during the height of hustle culture and I burned out.

For years, I poured my heart into English Tea Paperie, once an exclusive wedding stationery studio. From the outside, it looked like success; inside, I was overwhelmed, overworked, and creatively depleted. Like so many women, I mistook striving for purpose and perfection for peace.


But beauty has a way of calling us back home.
 
Today my work rests in a slower rhythm - one that honors art as a way of living, not just something we hang on our walls.

What began as a love for paper, poetry, and intentional design has blossomed into a lifestyle brand devoted to romanticizing the every day. Through paintings, heirloom wedding details, and creative tools, I invite others to live more artfully, to see beauty as a luxury -as a way of being. 

Because life, in all it's messy and magic, is ART.
 

I believe beauty isn't just something we see, it's something we feel.

Here's what you'll find in this little corner of the internet:

FINE ART
Collections

My paintings are released in small, heartfelt collections a few times a year. Some are made into prints. A few become cozy pieces of merchandise. All are made with love and a hopeful reflection of life as it is: imperfect, beautiful, blooming anyway. 

The
RESET HUB

A gentle invitation to reset your mind, clear the noise, and reconnect with what matters. This space includes my signature Clear Mind Journal, seasonal rituals, digital downloads, playlists, and soft structure for the creative woman craving clarity and peace.

ANTIQUE FINDS
& Styling Kits

Curated one-of-a-kind pieces and styled treasures I find on my antiquing adventures: antique dishes, vintage stamps, and more. Whether you're a photographer, stylist, or romantic collector, these heirloom-quality items are chosen to inspire beauty in the details.

WEDDING Stationery

Full-service bespoke wedding papers, thoughtfully designed from your first announcement to your last handwritten thank you card. Each piece is crafted with artistry and romance to tell your story with timeless elegance.

Originally from London, England, but with the help of some camp eyes and a sweet boy from the South, I now call Richmond, Virginia, my home.

Living in a little cottage on the corner,
I spend my days painting soft florals and architecture, curating antique treasures, and creating tools that help women reset and live more artfully. What began as a wedding stationery studio has grown into a place where art, beauty, and everyday rituals come together.

Whether I'm sketching new collections, packaging heirloom finds, or writing gentle notes to my email list, my work always circles back to the same intention: to notice beauty, to savor it, and to share it.

If you've found your way here, I imagine you're someone who values meaning over more, depth over noise, and beauty that tells a story. 

You're in the right place.
So make a cup of tea, and wander. 
There's something here for every chapter: for your home, your wedding, your brand, and your soul. 


With love,
Chloé
