Lauren & Liz of Wolf & Wren
Episode 9

What goes into a Louie Award-winning Card of the Year? In the case of Wolf & Wren Press, every design grows from the 30-year friendship of co-founders Liz Wolf and Lauren Stapleton. That precious connection, born in middle school, is the kind where one finishes the other's sentences ... and the other picks right up on the story! I's at the core of every design Wolf & Wren prints — including their winning pet sympathy card that from first glance honors both the love and grief of these companionships. While their cards connect and uplift those separated by emotional and physical distances, Liz and Lauren also actually live far apart. Liz designs and illustrates the range while also working an art teacher in Rockford, Illinois, while Lauren does the printing and everything else that goes into running the Wolf & Wren stationery shop in Longmont, Colorado — some 946 miles away. While every house of stationery tends to take a distinctive approach to running its brand these days, that of Wolf & Wren is completely unique. Our chat covers not just the origins of Wolf & Wren, but where they see themselves — and the stationery community — evolving. Every house of stationery takes a distinctive approach to running itself these days, but that of Wolf & Wren is like no other — and that co-founder connection keeps the brand fresh and authentic.
