Jewelry for stationery lovers

 

Even people who love stationery need some bling, right? I love this ampersand necklace from Christina Kober Designs. Plated with 18 carat gold, the necklace was designed with beautiful symbolism. Here's what she says:

"Are you part of an and? I'm part of an "and": Christina & Dan. This tiny, three letter word can hold a lot of meaning, connecting two people together through love, friendship, and commitment. Wearing this symbol, the ampersand, is a simple way to show your connection and your commitment."

I think this necklace appeals to me because with a love of stationery also comes a love of typography. And speaking of which, I'm in love with this new (and free) font called Intro Inline found thanks to Pugly Pixel. Enjoy!

A gift I'm really looking forward to giving

One gift I'm really looking forward to giving this Christmas is this pop-up calendar from The Paper Place in Toronto. Each month has a tab and you pull it up to reveal the month. This one has scenes from favorite fairy tales and the other one has something else that I can't remember and it's wrapped so I can't check.

Is there one particular gift you're excited to give?

Baker's twine + reused box + seed paper tag = fresh and eco holiday gift packaging

I'm a huge fan of baker's twine and this year, I'm pairing it with these plantable seed paper gift tags and neutral-colored gift boxes. Throughout the year, I've been putting aside white and kraft boxes to use at Christmas, and together with the seed paper gift tags, the result is gift packaging that is fresh and eco all at the same time.

Now to practice my handwriting!

UPDATE #1: I bought the baker's twine online from The Twinery. Check out their amazing selection of colors!

UPDATE #2: You can also get baker's twine from Paper Source. The big spool of red is sold out online but the little red one is available. And lucky you if you get to shop in person at one of their fabulous stores.
