| Linadona Botancia Wrapping Paper Mock-ups |
We had a very productive year at Surtex this past May and it was gratifying to experience our nature inspired work connecting with so many people.
Dona had a great time mocking up these gift boxes ( above) that we showed in our booth. They were done with such care, she was born to wrap!

Dona also served as our booth designer extraordinaire and it certainly helps to have her discerning eye and attention to detail to make things right. This year we made it a point to add more florals like the Flight of Orchids Collection and also designed a coastal collection called Tidal Catch.
Since we both studied art in Italy and have a love for all things Italian, we found it difficult to stay away from
Mario Batali's Eataly in our off time. We confess to having several delicious meals there and enjoyed roaming around the market area. The perfect way to end a rigorous day at Surtex! I even took a suitcase packed with olive oil, cheese and salami back to South Carolina.
