Painted Parasol Studio specialises in greetings cards and was born out of a love of all things cute and quirky. Launched in 2021, it hopes to spread positivity one fun illustrated card at a time. The owner, Ellie Norbert-Munns, is a graphic designer who started her own small business after returning to rural Dorset following nearly a decade living in Southeast Asia, where she cultivated an appreciation for the beautiful hand-painted parasols of Myanmar.
