Happy Monday, everyone, and welcome to the next installment of Shop 52 Denver! Today I'd like to introduce you to a fabulous little paper/stationery shop called The Paper Lady!!!
The Paper Lady is located on South Gaylord Street just across from Silk Road, which we visited last week! I was immediately drawn to the contrast of the black and white striped awning against the aqua colored bricks! Let's take a peek inside:
Like any paper crafter I absolutely LOVE visiting paper/stationery shops! I could honestly spend hours perusing the notecards, tablets, journals, tags, bags, ribbons, pens, etc.!! The Paper Lady carries a wide variety of all of these items as well as custom-order invitations, cards, and stationery.
I absolutely LOVE this little frame with the nails in it to hold the tags!!! Such a FUN display!
Baskets full of festive tags for all occasions!
As you can see, the shop is ready for Valentine's Day! I thought the card with the tools was a super sweet "man-card"!!!
And check out these little handstamped sacks!!! LOVE THESE! Aren't they ADORABLE?!?! They each contain little mini cards, tags, or stickers! When I saw these I was reminded that I have been wanting to try to carve my own stamped image(s) sometime!!! Just something super artsy-fartsy that I've wanted to do ever since my sweet blog friend, Tina (AKA: The Traveling Mama) tried it out way back in March of 2010!
The store sells LOTS of pretty notepads decked out in trendy images and gorgeous color combos!
The shelves are FULL of inspiring patterns, prints, layouts, colors, gift ideas, packaging, etc.!
So...what do you think of The Paper Lady? It sure did spark a bunch of creative ideas in my mind!!! And I KNOW I'll be heading back there in the future to shop!!!
