Along with guiding the visual composition of the magazine and devising the Blissful Holiday Collection, Melissa also develops other exclusive products for Victoria. All these items reflect her love for historical elements, the charms of France, and a deep desire to inspire people to find and experience bliss. “As with anything I create,” she says, “I hope the wrapping paper, cards, and gift tags will bring joy to all those seeking to add an extra layer of enchantment to those special parcels nestled beneath the tree this year.”
The Blissful Holiday Collection is a collaboration with Dogwood Hill, a seller of luxurious semi-custom stationery known for eschewing mass-produced designs in favor of products highlighting favorite artists. Dogwood Hill’s attention to detail and sumptuous paper offerings make them an ideal partner for producing gift wrap and other items in the collection. Stock is limited, and selections are not sold in stores, so early orders are encouraged.
