The story of Page Petal

Nestled in a cozy corner of Scottsdale, Page Petal blossomed in 2020 with a simple mission: to sprinkle a little magic into your reading experience through pressed flower bookmarks.

Our obsession with fictional characters knows no bounds – each bookmark design is a homage to a beloved literary figure we just can't get over. Crafted with care and a touch of whimsy, our bookmarks bring these characters to life in your reading adventures.

This is a passion we're SO grateful to pursue. Thank you for being part of our enchanted journey!!

My book club sparked the idea for Page Petal, a project I'm endlessly thankful for. Combining my love for reading and flowers feels like the ultimate dream job. I have a deep appreciation for classic literature, yet I can easily lose myself in the pages of a modern-day romcom or a gripping British Isles thriller. My husband and I have been happily married for twelve years, and our little Sophia (who is one) lights up our world. During the summer, we head off to the Cotswolds, where we like to imagine ourselves living in a Jane Austen novel. Life couldn't be more magical.

I’ve been at Page Petal for almost 2 years now and it really is a dream come true! I love having a creative outlet and being able to turn all my favorite characters into bookmarks while playing with flowers and listening to audiobooks all day! I truly read all genres but I love myself a high stakes fantasy or a heartbreaking lit-fic. My husband and I have been married for a year and are dog parents to Albus (named after the greatest wizard of all time). We are true home bodies, always reading, gaming, cooking and going on long sunset walks!
