Katie Housley Paper Goods

Hove, east sussex

Katie Housley is an independent stationery brand based by the sea in Hove, where every collection is thoughtfully designed and proudly made in the UK.

We believe that everyday moments deserve a little theatre. In a world of instant messages and fleeting interactions, our paper goods celebrate the enduring power of handwritten words, thoughtful gestures, and choosing analogue. We design stationery that transforms the simple act of sending a card into an experience—one that invites people to pause, connect, and make someone feel truly seen.

Every detail is considered, from the first illustration to the final finishing touches, creating pieces that are designed to be displayed, treasured, and kept. Each order is lovingly packed and sent from my seaside studio with the hope that it becomes part of someone's most meaningful moments.

Because sometimes, the smallest gestures leave the greatest impression.

The story behind the business
Meet Katie Housley Paper Goods

Katie Housley Paper Goods was founded by myself, Katie in 2012 after the birth of my first child.

He was born with a serious heart condition and I designed a range of cards to raise money for a charity that supported us during that period. One of the cards was spotted by an interiors shop and they asked to become a stockist!

Since then it has continued to be my creative output, combining my love of design, eye for detail and celebrating those magical occasions as well as those beautiful, ordinary, and everyday moments. I have never underestimated the power of the handwritten note - a hug in a card to your nearest and dearest.
