Yes, I\u2019m quite the magpie. While on a recent search for wedding stationery I came in contact with Margriet, from Pinc Ltd. This great local business, having started out specialising in pocketfold envelopes, had recently branched into foil printing and the minute I saw the samples I fell in love.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-1626 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/asyouwish.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/mo.jpg\" alt=\"Margriet from Pinc Ltd\" width=\"149\" height=\"178\" \/>Having had the pleasure of seeing their foil product range grow over the last few months, I was thrilled to have Margriet join us in an interview for our 12 Days of Christmas Ideas \u2013 after all what time of year goes better with shiny and foil than Christmas, right!<\/p>\n<p>A few years ago Margriet started manufacturing pocketfolds and sleeves for wedding invitations and gift vouchers. This range quickly grew to accommodate various other small items, embellishments like starfish, charms, printed ribbon and more. Earlier this year they were presented with a wonderful opportunity to start foil printing, which they took on with much excitement. The business is now based in Red Beach on the beautiful Hibiscus Coast here in Auckland.<\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0Margriet, it\u2019s lovely to have you join us. Can you please tell us about your range of readymade foil products?<\/span><\/h6>\n<p><em>We started the foil printing earlier this year, like you I am drawn to shiny, sparkly things and as soon as the idea of foiling was presented to us I was so excited! We have printed such a range \u2013 business cards, wedding invitations, Christmas cards, packaging\u2026 and more recently we have acquired a large format foiler that can do up to A3 size. We\u2019ve been having a lot of fun with that machine, making d\u00e9cor prints and various wall art pieces. Doing one off little frames as art pieces too. We currently have gold and silver foil for the A3 prints, and we\u2019ve actually just today ordered some samples from a local supplier to see if their coloured foils work on that machine. So many options! Very exciting!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1625 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/asyouwish.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/christmas-cards-2.jpg\" alt=\"Foil christmas cards\" width=\"1500\" height=\"495\" srcset=\"http:\/\/asyouwish.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/christmas-cards-2.jpg 1500w, http:\/\/asyouwish.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/christmas-cards-2-300x99.jpg 300w, http:\/\/asyouwish.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/christmas-cards-2-1024x338.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"color: #000000;\">They are just so beautiful.
