  • Introducing Library of Flowers

    We are thrilled to introduce Library of Flowers--an America Small Batch Parfumery. From Eau de Parfum, Parfum Crema, Coco Butter Handcreme, Bubble Bath, Perfumed Soap, to Bath Oil-- the products are carefully crafted to create memorable journeys through sight and scent. According to Library of Flowers, they've created "the perfect pick me up to nourish the senses and inspire the gardens of the imagination". According to RPS teammate Mary, we love Library of Flowers "not just because the display looks like what the inside of Cinderella's walk-in closet probably looks like, but also because the scents allow you to get that "I just fell asleep in a field of wildflowers" smell without actually having to deal with bugs or itchy grass." Well said, Mary, well said.   In Ann Arbor, we have the Paper & String Collection and have started with the 3 scents that make this collection-- Linden, Field & Flowers & Honecomb. Check out below to learn more!

  • It's the most wonderful time of the year!

    Second to none (yep, not even second to Christmas card season), it's the MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR or New York National Stationery Show time! From May 19th-22nd in New York City, the world's *yep, world's* greatest letterpress printers, wedding invitation designers, foil-stampers, greeting card geniuses, calligraphers, manufacturers, retailers & creatives will converge on the Javitz Center to create what can only be described as my happy place. We not only check in on our favorite designers & see all their new goodies for the year, but also find new product lines, designers and trends! Be. still. my. paper. obsessed. heart. The weeks leading up to NSS feel like the nights leading up to Christmas as a child... every day there are hints & sneak peek product releases from our favorite designers. Stationery show mailers grace the presence of our "mailbox" (ok we don't have a mailbox, we have the nicest mailman in the world who piles, ever so neatly, our mail on the counter). Because we've never been one to turn down an early present opening during Christmas, we wanted to share some of our favorite company's mailers & sneak peeks of designs to come!

    In the world of cards & social stationery, we're excited about SO MANY different designers. Here are a few of the mailers we can't get enough of!

    Belle & Union Luggage tag, packing list, We're NSS ready, THANKS 9th Letterpress!   Farewell Paperie! Love the the colors. Love the Fill In. Love it. Fancy Seeing You Here!   We are so looking forward to the Social Stationery from Ladyfinger Letterpress! Stay tuned in the next couple weeks for what we're looking forward to & our finds at NSS! We can't wait to bring home so many amazing goodies-- until then, we'll keep sharing the AH.MAZING mailers & sneak peeks that come our way!
