It’s Bike Season!

Saturday, May 18th, 2013

Inspired by this lovely bike riding weather, and the MEC Bikefest that is happening across the street in the park… I share with you some of my favourite bike stuff from in store!

We have you covered for bike themed greeting cards with birthdays and blanks just for saying ‘Hello’.

This Cavallini & Co Vintage bike paper could be used to wrap a gift, cut up for craft or collage or just framed and put up on the wall. Any bike enthusiast would love it!

New Year, New Ideas, New Notebooks!

Sunday, January 6th, 2013

Happy 2013! While I’m not the type of person to take New Year’s resolutions very seriously, I do have one ritual that I perform every January: starting a new notebook. If you’re as obsessed with stationery as the rest of us Paper Place crew, then you probably have a dozen notebooks on the go at the same time (and a stack of blank ones that are just too pretty to write in, too!), but I do like to start a new one at the beginning of the year. This is usually a small, pocket-sized book that I carry around for twelve months to jot down ideas for new projects I’d like to work on throughout the year, new books and records and restaurants to check out, or whatever comes to mind while I’m roaming around the city. These new mini notebooks that we received from Paperways in Korea are just perfect for this purpose. They are inexpensive and colourful – exactly what everyone needs in January! – and have fantastic graphic patterned pages.

My favourite Paperways notebook  has a light, creamy cover and an orange and blue grid pattern inside (and it’s only $3.95!). The pages just happen to match my favourite roll of washi tape, so I used some to make page dividers.

Here’s to a productive 2013, filled with new ideas and projects!
