about
I’m Ellie Snow, a freelance graphic designer in Durham, North Carolina, and the author and editor of Mint. I began Mint in February 2008 as a place to store an online collection of art, design, weddings, handmade objects that inspire me in my own work and life. In 2009 I began my stationery shop, Hello Tenfold, and launched my Bella Figura letterpress wedding invitation collection in 2010 and my Paperless Post collection in 2011. Mint was included in the 2009 London Times article, “50 of the World’s Best Design Blogs,” and was featured in the March 2010 issue of Romantic Homes magazine. My work has been featured in HOW Magazine, BRIDES Local, Southern Weddings Magazine, Martha Stewart Weddings online, Nice to Meet You Too (published by Victionary), and Impressive: Printmaking, Letterpress and Graphic Design (published by Gestalten).
When I’m not blogging or designing, I love spending time with my husband, scouring flea markets and vintage shops, eating Thai and Indian foods, reading a good novel, traveling, or drinking iced lattes surround by big stacks of design magazines.
