‘How to’ Blogs: Copywriting for Paper Source

 
 

How to Make the Perfect Bow

I worked with the team at Paper Source to create copy for “how to” style blog posts. In this example, I wrote a post on how to make the perfect bow.

My work involved drafting copy for each step of the bow making process. I also aligned the copy with the corresponding images.

Each blog post was enhanced by a “how to” video.

Nothing makes a sweeter statement atop a gift than a perfectly tied bow. And with endless pattern and color combinations, it's the perfect skill to master for any season. Follow our guide for all of the pro-bow tying tips you'll ever need.

How to Make a Custom Envelope

Continuing the work of “how to” blogs, I created a blog post on How to Make a Custom Envelope.

For this post, I gathered a list of materials needed, and noted where links could be made to Paper Source items.

Then I wrote step-by-step instructions for making a custom envelope. I worked with the Paper Source team to take constructive feedback, make edits and produce a high-quality final product.

I understood that the copy needed to be compelling, because each post offers a detailed “how to” video at the end.

Just as you take the time to wrap gifts in pretty paper and perfect bows, give your correspondences the same personal touch with DIY envelopes. With the right tools, making your own envelopes is a cinch. Follow our guide to see for yourself.
