Our Story
Born from Ink, Bloomed with Love
Beauty of Papers started in 2021 in a tiny shared studio in Portland, Oregon. What began as a side project between two illustrators and a print technician quickly became something much bigger -a platform for independent artists to share their work in a medium that’s intimate, wearable, and wonderfully temporary.
We believe art should be accessible, personal, and guilt-free. No commitments, no needles, no regrets -just beautiful designs that let you express yourself in the moment.
What We Stand For
Support Artists
Every artist earns a fair royalty on every sheet sold. We handle printing, packaging, and shipping so they can focus on what they do best -creating.
Protect the Planet
Biodegradable packaging, vegan inks, carbon-neutral shipping. We’re working toward a fully circular production model by 2026.
Celebrate Expression
Temporary tattoos are a joy. No judgment, no permanence -just a beautiful way to wear art that matches your mood, your outfit, or your moment.
