Her business name is her through and through. The first thing you will notice when you meet Jessica Gale is how perfectly petite she is! As they say, good things come in small packages – so this name and sentiment is very fitting for her stationery business, Little J Designs.

Jess is a one-woman-show, designing her gorgeous paper morsels while maintaining her full time job. From the outside looking in, you may not realise this, because Jess is such a pocket rocket, her energy for her business is never ending.

She started out as an intern for Cosmopolitan Magazine, then moved on to working in events in London before falling in love with weddings.

We took some time to get to know Jessica a little better by quizzing her about her business and all her local faves…

I previously have worked in the retail sector mostly. But when I moved to London in 2015 I worked in at the Berkley Hotel in the events department. We did everything from corporate events to weddings to crazy bar mitzvah’s! It really showed me how much I love all the details that go into wedding and events.

What’s the latest news from Little J Designs?

I have recently changed the packages I offer to my couples. I’ve added in some of the finer details that people are loving and also simplified a few for the couple just wanting to cover the basics.

Anyone else have a paper products addiction? There is a chance I may soon need an intervention. The number many yet-to-be-used pretty notebooks I have in my office drawer are creeping up to the dozens. I can’t get enough of running my hands over those sweet, sweet pages of crisp delight. 

Considering my creepy obsession, you can imagine my excitement when we recently welcomed local Sunshine Coast stationery designer, Lu Lu Letterpress into the fold here at The Bride’s Tree. If there is one thing that gets me more excited than a new notebook, a new season of Orphan Black on Netflix, and a new flavour of Tim Tams combined, it’s a boutique stationery designer offering letterpress invitations and stationery suites. 

Letterpress printing requires great attention to detail, with each colour requiring a separate press and has therefore been widely superseded by digital printing methods. Designer, Sophie, says it is a labour of love, but the final printed piece is a beauty to behold. Oh yes, m’lady, it sure is. 

Today we have a whole Pinboard gallery of stationery stills for you to devour. Then just close your eyes and imagine running your hands over every little letterpress groove… Okay, I get how this sounds. I’m going to stop now before I come home to find a collection of loved ones in my living room, toting prepared speeches on iPads (incase palm cards get me too riled up) and my best interests at heart. Then they take me away to endure the controversial, but effective, Paper Cut Therapy I deserve…

Rich green and gold wedding stationery for Amy and Matt’s special day at Weddings at Tiffany’s was a perfect personalised touch. The entire suite followed an adventure theme complete with a map, a hot air balloon and a font that hinted at yesteryear. 

This beautiful foil-printed richly tectured paper porn was custom designed by our gals at The Wondery. Images by Julian Beattie.
