about me

Hello! I'm Sarah Brown, the owner of Belletristics. I am a designer, small business owner, and typography enthusiast. I live in southwest Michigan with my husband Jake, who supports me every step of the way, puts up with my design obsession, and understands the stress of being a small business owner.

My love of art and design began at a young age, thanks to a wonderful mother who regularly encouraged art and craft projects. Over the years, this passion for the arts continued, but it wasn't until creating my own wedding invitations that I realized how much I enjoyed stationery design.

In 2008, I quit my day job and began designing stationery full time when I started Belletristics. I created Belletristics with do-it-yourself brides in mind, offering printable design services for wedding stationery.

Looking to expand beyond printable designs, in 2012 I founded Banter & Charm. At Banter & Charm I'm able to bring my love of design and infatuation with paper goods together, offering a full range of printed stationery products.

In addition to Belletristics and Banter & Charm, I also have stationery collections available at Minted, Brightside Prints, My Publisher, and Kimberly Fitzsimons.
