Custom laser cutting and UV printing for acrylic signage, stir sticks, table numbers, and more—crafted with precision, quick turnaround, and trusted by fellow stationers.
Premium Wholesale Production for Stationers
Your behind-the-scenes production partner
I’ve been a stationer for over 15 years through Heather O’Brien Design, where we create timeless, heirloom-inspired wedding stationery. Over the years, we grew our in-house production with a laser cutter and UV printer to meet our own needs—and quickly realized how impactful these tools could be for other designers, too.
Through The Cultivated Creative, I’ve also spent the last 7 years teaching and mentoring fellow stationers. Helping you elevate your client experience (without the overwhelm of production) is one of my favorite parts of what I do.
Whether you need acrylic stir sticks for a wedding bar or a custom welcome sign, we’re here to bring your designs to life with craftsmanship and care.

"Finding production partners who truly get design and client expectations is rare—but working with Heather changes the game. As a designer herself, she needs no hand-holding, communicates clearly and quickly, and holds an incredibly high bar for quality. She even stocks some acrylic to speed things up and always has smart tips for anyone new to the materials. It’s seamless, efficient, and actually enjoyable."
Hannah, noted design
I have used The Cultivated Creative for many acrylic projects in my stationery business over the years, and it's always such a seamless, easy process. From simple stir sticks to complicated bar signs and seating chart elements, Heather is incredibly helpful in ensuring that the final product is exactly what I envisioned. I especially love that they have common acrylic colors on hand, and the turnaround time is always communicated well so that I can plan projects accordingly. I highly recommend The Cultivated Creative for any acrylic project you have!

Working with Heather is always a pleasure. She is prompt and so helpful to guide me through the laser cutting and printing process. She suggests options and gives ideas and I honestly couldn’t imagine using anyone else. Not to mention all my projects have been executed ahead of schedule and came out beautiful! I highly recommend The Cultivated Creative to anyone looking for any help and support with their projects.
what stationers are saying
allison, kindly delivered
Working with Heather is always such a smooth experience. I've done several acrylic projects with Heather now and they are usually last minute on my part (wedding day stationery iykyk) but Heather is always so accommodating. We even had a shipment snafu and she rushed to reprint everything so quickly to make sure I got everything to my client on time before the wedding. Besides Heather being just genuinely the easiest and kindest to work with, she also goes above and beyond. One of my favorite things about working with her is not having to create table number or signage slots or bases - she figures out what they need to be and makes them for you! She's all around the best to work with - highly recommend!
