Paper & Ink

Farrell and I LOVE stationery and the stores that sell it. I've been surprised to find out that a lot of girls have secret dreams of owning a stationery store, so I want to introduce you to some women who have made it happen: Amy Gardner and her staff at Rock Paper Scissors in Charlottesville, VA. This store is amazing. What really sets them apart is their custom printing. They can create the nicest invitations with your own pictures- black and white, sepia toned, or color. The ones I have seen are really elegant, fresh and unique. Check out an example and more information here. Their save-the-dates are are especially cute. (And really, wouldn't you love to do something individual that doesn't involve custom made stamps?) If you don't live in Charlottesville, it's ok- they will still be happy to work with you. (Honestly, the problem with Rock Paper Scissors is that once you discover it, you won't want to open your store any more- you will just want to work at theirs!) - LG
