Idea ② Escort Cards
The right side of the escort card is decorated with William Morris designs bought from Seria♡
It's great that you can create several patterns, such as "Dahlias and Roses," "Roses," and "Strawberry Thief."
Here’s a picture of the escort cards on display.
The various patterns lined up are so festive!♡
Idea ③ Escort Board
An escort board decorated with various patterned envelopes of William Morris is also stylish♡
The mosaic part has guests' names written on it, and each guest is to take an envelope one by one.
Idea ④ Decorative Paper
Using Morris paper for the decorative paper of the invitation envelope♡
It seems they cut and pasted paper from the 100 Sheet Letter Book to fit the shape of the envelope flap for their DIY project.
It looks as beautiful as a store-bought item!♡
The included guest card is also patterned with Morris designs♡
They linked the designs of the decorative paper and the guest card together.♡
Idea ⑤ Letter Ceremony
The letter ceremony, which has been seen often lately, involves guests opening and reading letters all at once during the ceremony.
Making the envelopes for those letters with Morris paper is also stylish♡

Idea ⑥ Mask Case
A mask case featuring Morris patterns♡
This will be an etiquette item you’d want to continue using.
Idea ⑦ Petit Gifts
It’s also nice to use William Morris for packaging petit gifts♡
By the way, this petit gift is...
La Maree de Chaya's Chocolat Caro from Hayama♡
If various patterned William Morris boxes were lined up at the last farewell scene...
Guests would surely feel excited until the very end!*
Idea ⑧ Place Cards
Using Morris paper as place cards is also wonderful♡
Since a single sheet of paper is quite thin, they reinforced it by adhering a cut-out piece of colored paper to the back for more strength in their DIY project.
Morris designs pair perfectly with tassels too!♡

Creating travel expense envelopes for distant guests with Morris paper is the trend now♡
Since it has a vibrant pattern, it pairs well with colorful mizuhiki too♩
