Victoria Cole – The Gypsy & the Hermit Trading Company
Cristina (the Gypsy) and Victoria (the Hermit) are a mother-daughter duo who believe that every day is a celebration, and life should be lived to the fullest. With their handmade fabric gift wraps and greeting cards, they seek to spread magic through gifts and kind words this holiday season.
The first time Victoria was presented with a gift wrapped in fabric, it was love at first sight! She became even more of a believer in the sustainable alternative to paper when she began wrapping gifts for her friends and family. The art of wrapping gifts for loved ones inspired her to develop a line of holiday and every-occasion wraps that bring joy and awe to both the gift giver and receiver.
Cristina’s mixed-media greeting cards are an expression of her combined love of flowers, watercolor, and sparkle! Each happy greeting card has been hand made with lots of love, and a little singing and dancing too!
The Gypsy and the Hermit hope that their fabric gift wraps, gift bags, and greeting cards can amplify cherished moments with loved ones, and serve as reminders to be grateful for the blessings around us all.
