ABOUT US
Lovely as a Tree aims to enable and inspire graphic designers to make more environmentally friendly choices in their work.
In order to remain impartial, Lovely as a Tree is completely independent. However, we now charge an admin fee of £90 to each printer or paper merchant for listings of products or services that reach our strict criteria.
The information on this site has been thoroughly checked by industry experts (see credits below).
