Interactive guest book artwork is a unique way to engage your friends and family at major events and appreciate as artwork for a lifetime.
It started with a wedding: We love weddings, obviously. We love making them uniquely handcrafted, memorable and personal. But we didn't always know we loved this...The seeds of Bleu de Toi started with our own wedding and the DIY-goodness we learned while planning it. A few short months after we said "I do", we started selling our original drawings on etsy and now also sell our beautiful designs on our own site, www.shopbdt.com
Since 2010, BDT Handmade has grown from selling a few drawings, to providing simple and beautiful keepsakes for all types of major life events. The birth of our son in 2012 inspired even more products geared toward recording family gatherings and turning those moments into memorable artwork.
Bleu de Toi is a French phrase that generally means "crazy for you" or "blue over you". It doesn't directly translate to English, but we love the sentiment behind it. Many years ago Hilary, our head artist and founder, was studying in Lyon, France and our company is named after her favorite restaurant and hang-out there. We have noticed that the name may be a little hard to say... and even harder to spell. We refer to ourselves as BDT in much of our communication. We hope you will too, but now you know the story.
We believe that bringing friends and family together is always a special occasion worth remembering. We also believe that life should be filled with art. What better way to merge these two beliefs than visually memorializing an event with something beautiful that is touched by each person that you shared it with?
