A dimensional, handcrafted greeting card made from layered paper and glue.
Working Maine lighthouses would never be painted blue. Along the coast, lighthouses need to stand apart from the sky and sea so mariners can recognize them from a distance. Our Blue and White Lighthouse was designed for a different purpose.
Our original design uses the familiar structure of a Maine lighthouse, then shifts it from navigational aid to something more symbolic. Lighthouses have come to represent guidance, resilience, steadiness, and support, making this blue lighthouse especially suited to messages meant to help someone feel seen, encouraged, or remembered.
The lighthouse is built from individual pieces of paper, precision-cut by machine, then positioned, layered, and glued by hand. Sapphire blue and sparkling white glitter papers form the striped tower and lantern room. Matte black paper defines the doors, windows, railing, and architectural details, with warm yellow paper shining through the lantern room windows to create the beacon's glow. A copper-toned glitter paper cupola completes the design.
Send the Blue and White Lighthouse greeting card when someone could use encouragement, reassurance, or support, or simply as a reminder that you're thinking of them. With a blank interior, there's plenty of room for your message.
