Where Community Meets Creative
Founded by Dana Lynch | Wellesley, MA | Since 2019
Blue Kite Co. grew out of my experience as a graphic designer, small business owner, and community volunteer. I've seen firsthand how much planning and coordination goes into bringing a great idea to life.
Today, I bring that experience to projects of all sizes, combining creative thinking, practical solutions, and a personal approach with more than 200 projects and counting.

About the Kite
I've always believed that necessity is the mother of invention. Some of my best ideas have come from finding creative solutions to everyday challenges, whether for a client or one of my own projects.
The name Blue Kite was inspired by Benjamin Franklin's famous kite experiment and childhood visits to Philadelphia's Franklin Institute. I loved the sense of discovery there, especially the enormous statue of Ben Franklin in the rotunda. Years later, I enjoyed watching my own sons experience that same wonder.
Franklin's famous experiment, using a kite, a metal key, and a thunderstorm to explore his theories about electricity, seemed like the perfect inspiration for a business built around problem solving and a willingness to try something new.
That same spirit guides my work today. I believe that anything is possible when we approach each day with creativity and curiosity.
BEYOND BLUE KITE CO.
Work Behind the Work
Alongside client projects, I run Blue Kite Press and Bleacher Supply Co., and volunteer with the Greeting Card Association. Running my own product and apparel businesses means I work through the same steps my clients do: sourcing, production, pricing, shipping, and getting the details right.
ILLUSTRATED CARDS, STATIONERY & GIFTS
Blue Kite Press
Blue Kite Press began as a small Etsy shop in 2019 and grew into a collection of colorful, nostalgia-inspired stationery, housewares, and gifts. Selling through Etsy, Shopify, Faire Marketplace to independent retailers nationwide has given me firsthand experience in product development, e-commerce, wholesale, and exhibiting at industry trade shows like *Noted+Gifted.

TEAM STORES & CUSTOM MERCHANDISE
Bleacher Supply Co.
What started as a way to simplify team apparel orders for local youth sports organizations grew into Bleacher Supply Co., an online team store and fulfillment service. By combining custom merchandise, on-demand decoration, and local delivery, I made it easier for teams and community groups to offer branded gear without getting caught up in the details.

INDUSTRY LEADERSHIP & COMMUNITY
Greeting Card Association
Volunteering with the Greeting Card Association has been a rewarding way to contribute to the industry, build relationships, and explore new opportunities. As a member since 2021, I've served on the Louie Awards Committee and hosted the Boston judging hub, the Public Affairs Committee and helped strengthen the industry's partnership with the U.S. Postal Service. Highlights include presenting to the Postmaster General and organizing the Perfect Pairing Pop Up Party in Providence, RI in April 2026.
