National Stationery Show Round Up | Part 1

Just finished up two wonderful days at the 65th Annual National Stationery Show, in New York City. Having attended the show last year unsure as to what to expect, this year I can armed and ready with bags for collecting samples, comfortable shoes and a camera. The show is a paper lovers dream, featuring everything from note cards to wedding invitations, showcasing the very best in the biz. Having the opportunity to see such beautiful work in person was such a treat, as was having the chance to chat with some of my stationer idols. Here are a few of my favorite booths, more to come including Rifle Paper and Smock.

Mr. Boddingtons Studio | Hands down he best designed booth at the show. So much thought went into the overall “mail room” theme and nothing is better than Mr. Boddington Stationery.

Linda & Harriett | Beautifully displayed calender line, featuring their letterpress work and book covers.

Fine Day Press | Celebrating their first anniversary, Fine Day had the most precious “goodie bags” as well of a stunning array of new work on display.
