Looking for someone who knows more about paper than I do, I stumbled across The Paper Nest’s website. Upon reading the variety of paper they use, I instantly knew this was where I needed to go. There’s such an attention to detail here and the owner, Liz, really knows her stuff. The shop is located in the back of Beadology on Washington in downtown Iowa City. I entered through the Beadology store and walked back through their crafting room — there’s a cutesy paper sign outside of The Paper Nest’s front door. I ended up buying a couple large sheets of paper here. Now that I’ve seen the space, met Liz, and seen her gorgeous letterpress work, I can hardly wait for the first opportunity I have to submit a letterpress order with her.
