About
Around the Way Parchment

Around the Way Parchment is a full-service stationery design firm on a mission to strengthen your interpersonal relationships one piece of paper at a time. ATWP serves as the 'envelope' encouraging stronger connections and deeper relationships. Inspired by the constraints of stay-at-home orders during the pandemic, creator Krystal Henry understood just how important personal connection was and saw traditional means, such as phone calls and mailing greeting cards, to strengthening relationships. It is because of that reason Henry created typography-forward designs that connected to African American and popular culture.

 

The BEGINNING:

In early 2021, owner and lead creator, Krystal Henry, responded to the problem of not being able to find Mother’s Day cards for Mom friends by creating Mother’s Day cards designed specifically to be exchanged amongst friends. It was there that Around the Way Parchment was born. Before creating stationery, Henry created a blog (Around the Way Mom) in 2016 as an online resource for Moms.

 

The FUTURE:

Greeting cards are the flagship product for AWP. Birthday, Love, Thank You, EntrepreneuHERship, Sympathy, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Holiday. Plus, additional products will be added including journals, notepads, writing tools and small products. Get ready!
