Wrendale ‘Garden Friends’ Paper Pot Press

Wrendale Designs ‘Garden Friends’ Paper Pot Press

Reduce your plastic use in the garden with this wonderful ‘garden friends’ paper pot press from Wrendale Designs. With biodegradable paper covered in gorgeous Wrendale illustrations, it’s a simple and effortless way to stop single use planters in your garden.

The press is made from beech wood from sustainably managed forests and the base and handle are both engraved with the Wrendale Designs branding. The wooden press is decorated with the wonderful ‘The Flower Pot’ illustration that depicts a lovable young bunny rabbit popping his head out of a flower pot. Scattered around him are some blooming onions which he has dug up so that there is room for him to sit inside the flower pot.

The press also comes with six sheets of the biodegradable paper for you to turn into plant pots, perfect for planting straight into the ground when your seedling is big enough. The sheets feature a selection of countryside themed illustrations from artist Hannah Dale which are set against a pastel green background and are perfect for allowing your seedlings to thrive, while still looking cute.

Perfect for any green fingered gardener who wants to help the environment, this paper pot press would make a brilliant gift. It comes packaged securely in a printed box, ideal for a Birthday, Christmas, Easter or a little treat for yourself and your garden.

Normal paper or newspaper can be used once the paper supplied has been used

1. Wrap the biodegradable paper around the paper pot press, leaving one third over the bottom.

3. Insert the paper pot press into the wooden base and twist to secure the paper into a pot shape.

This delightful range of stationery and accessories is inspired by the animal characters seen in the British countryside, farmyard and home, as well as more exotic creatures. Featuring original artwork produced by Hannah Dale, each image is delicately painted with soft brushwork, subtle colours and paint spatters. Hannah is an ex-stockbroker turned farmer’s wife who, inspired by her rural married life, embraced her artistic roots and began painting the animals in the landscape around her. Since then Wrendale Designs has expanded into a family business, producing a wide range of greetings cards, ceramic, melamine and textile items, all featuring artwork touched with the magic of Hannah’s watercolour brush.
