The Program

At Colorway Arts, we believe Cartonnage is meant to be shared, taught, and celebrated. That is why we created our Wholesale Program, a welcoming pathway for shops, cartonnage enthusiasts, and creative professionals who want to sell our products, teach cartonnage projects, and potentially grow into certified instructors.

This program is designed for those who already love cartonnage and would like to take the next step, whether that means offering classes to friends, hosting workshops in a store or studio, or selling Colorway Arts products to a creative community.

 Below, you will find all the information and guidelines regarding how our projects can be taught, how materials and designs may be distributed, and what is required if you wish to obtain an official Colorway Arts instructor certification.We are truly happy to welcome you here.
