It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. For some, very, very much so.
And everyone's busy with party preparations. For us (and every company), one of the trickiest things is always the card. What message should it convey? Who's been good and deserves one? And most importantly: what picture should go on it? For us, as a relatively small mail-order company, that's a bit complicated. But there are... There are definitely some who have to be really focused during the holidays, setting up their entire logistics operation and generally experiencing a lot of stress, simply because it's their peak season.

A calendar!
But what a contribution it is: A whole host of friends of Neuland® have contributed here. Brandy Agerbeck, Kelvy Bird, Birgit Smit, Sophia Liang, Diane Black, Jimi Holstebro, Renatta Algalarrondo, Margarita from pataleta, Emily Shepard, Heather Martinez, Elena Urizar, Sam Bradd… they all provided us with wonderful motifs, which we have printed just as wonderfully on four different papers – inspired by our 4-2-sketch sketchbook.
It is being sent out by post to 30,000 recipients these days.
(Did we forget someone? Hopefully not you. Or you, or you? If so, get in touch.)
We are looking forward to Christmas.
