Our Story

It all started from a place of need. The need to gift loved ones something meaningful. The need to provide a gift that they would love and appreciate. The need to find something quickly and easily. And the need to find it at the right price point.

A few years ago, the idea of Manena-Studio was born, after searching high and low for a beautiful gift that I just couldn’t find. After feeling defeated, a little idea came to life, and I began my mission for creating and delivering customized stationery gift boxes for every person, occasion or event.

Manena's Story

As a graphic designer and web developer, my love for good design goes well beyond beautiful stationary. Good design creates an emotional connection to the design and person using it. Good design provides a unique balance of colors and fonts, while satisfying a need. Doodling and designing are much more than my work, it is my passion, and I love that this little idea, of personalized stationery gift boxes, can help you gift meaningful presents to your loved ones.

We Care

Part of our journey in creating the brand behind Manena-Studio was to find environmentally conscious paper manufacturers’ in the United States.  Not only offering superior quality paper, but also products that focus on reducing our own environmental footprint.  

Most of our paper choices are organic, recycled, post-consumer waste, acid free, and FSC ® certified. Focused on lessening landfill dependency.  At Manena-Studio we believe in, and support wildlife conservation, preservation, and our connection within the ecology that we all share. 

Portions of the proceeds go to support the Wildlife Society and the Humane Society in efforts to sustain good environmental practice for a planet in balance.
