Made from 100% recycled paper, Swan River daisy seeds.
Paper & Bloom products are ethically handmade in Australia, emphasising a commitment to reducing environmental impact. The team consists of the founder and two part-time employees, operating from a studio in Mt Hawthorn, Perth WA. The brand exclusively collaborates with Australian suppliers who adhere to fair labour practices.
Paper & Bloom's seeded paper is crafted from 100% recycled materials. Their eco-friendly packaging is entirely biodegradable or recyclable, avoiding single-use plastics by using plant-based cellophane and 100% recycled paper envelopes and opting for email invoices. Even scraps are repurposed into plantable thank you cards and confetti, while their tape, washy tape and stickers are biodegradable. They frequently reuse packing boxes and wrapping paper from other suppliers to promote sustainability. Additionally, the brand prioritises working with Australian suppliers, particularly those based in Perth.
Paper & Bloom donates 1% of every purchase to Carbon Positive Australia, a charity focused on tree planting and land restoration to promote climate action. The brand also organises giveaway days to repurpose faulty greeting cards into postcards for the community, sharing them through local platforms like Facebook Buy Nothing. Examples include a teacher using them for her primary school students to write appreciation cards on National Random Acts of Kindness Day and another individual bringing them to a community garden where she volunteers.

Product Reviews by Experts


It’s not just a beautiful card, it’s a gift that keeps giving, blossoming into vibrant wildflowers long after the moment has passed. The delicate texture of the handmade recycled paper feels so premium and unique and knowing it’s embedded with Swan River daisy seeds makes sending congratulations even more joyful. Their use of 100% recycled paper and local wildflower seeds is not only environmentally friendly but also supports biodiversity in Australia. It’s clear this brand lives its values in every aspect of their work, from eco-conscious materials to community engagement and charitable donations.


This card is such a beautiful way to celebrate someone- it’s personal, meaningful and leaves a lasting impact (literally!). I loved the texture of the handmade paper and the idea that a congratulations message can grow into wildflowers. It adds something extra special to the moment and feels far more thoughtful than a standard greeting card. This is something we will re-purchase! Paper & Bloom is the kind of brand you feel good supporting. Their entire process- from using 100% recycled paper and biodegradable packaging to donating 1% to Carbon Positive Australia- shows an authentic commitment to the environment and their community. I also love the creative ways they give second life to imperfect cards, like donating them for school and community projects. It’s small business with a big heart!


It’s such a fun and thoughtful way to say congrats. I love that it’s bright and cheerful, but also does more than just sit on a shelf, being able to plant it and grow real flowers makes it feel meaningful and lasting. It’s a card and a gift in one, which I really appreciate. I love that they’ve thought through the whole product. From the recycled paper to the biodegradable packaging and locally made design, it all lines up with low-impact values. It’s not just eco-friendly in theory; it’s actually doing the work.
