Hi, I'm Janine I founded Handmade by Janine in 1995. I'm a self-taught Graphic Designer from Durban, South Africa and I've always had a big love for print and paper. I’m a font nerd and can spend hours in stationery stores. I’m also addicted to coffee (my creative juice) and chocolate and have three fur kids who I adore! I also have the most amazing husband who supports me 1000% and cooks our meals because he knows that once I get onto a design, he’s not getting fed. I am passionate about creating stunning bespoke, personalized, one-of-a-kind stationery to fit all of the important events in your life – be it your wedding day, baby shower, birthday or even a corporate event. Your wedding invitation is often the first thing your guests see about your wedding, making them so important! At Handmade by Janine, we work together to create a wedding invitation that tells the story of your love. The rest of the stationery you need for your Ceremony and Reception helps to bring that love story to life. ​All our products are completely customized and created with love and care.
