Happy Weekend!

Happy National Doughnut Day Everyone! After 14 recaps from this year’s National Stationery Show, I’m ready for a doughnut and a nice long nap – or at least to go vacuum my house or attend to one of the many other chores I’ve been neglecting the last couple of weeks! I hope you enjoyed the coverage from this year’s show! Next week I’ll be back to my normal editorial schedule with some fun new posts, but in the meantime…

Since we saw this year’s Ladies of Letterpress exhibitors earlier this morning, I thought it would be fun to take a look at some of the Ladies of Letterpress “graduates” in our next recap. Since the Ladies of Letterpress booth debuted at the 2010 show, I’ve really enjoyed watching these and other past exhibitors grow into their own booths and continue to develop their stationery lines!

Today we’re jumping back into recaps from the 2014 National Stationery Show – and our first recap of the day is focused on three booths that pack an incredible amount of awesome stationery into each square foot of booth space. From the Crow & Canary booth representing more than twelve individual stationery lines to the shared Ladies of Letterpress booth with more than twelve individual exhibitors, there’s definitely a lot to see!

Wedding Stationery Inspiration: Tropical

It seems as though lots of folks are already off on summer vacations. Palm trees, pineapples, drink umbrellas and all! So I have all things tropical on the brain as I daydream about paradise… including wedding stationery! Anyone having a destination wedding somewhere perfect and playing up its tropical locale? These day-of paper goods inspired by those faraway colors and motifs we all know and love will certainly help! —Kelly
