Tona Bell

Proprietress & Creative Director

Tona has always had a passion for all things paper, packaging, writing and making. Throughout her 18-year career as President of Tricycle Studios, a public relations, marketing and creative agency, she encouraged the use of handwritten letters, continually finding new and exciting ways to use paper. After opening The Paper Seahorse in 2015, her dream came to life as she is able to share her passion for these creative pursuits with others. Focusing on creativity and mindfulness, she believes slow living and analog tools help us live a more well-balanced life.
