Paper Source

Nice quaint store with a lot of good gift finds. Staff was friendly and helpful. They also carried candy, mugs, pens & other office gags that is great to give that hard to please coworker.

OK, can I just say how OBSESSED I am with this store?! It truly is my own little slice of heaven on Earth.
PERFECT store for any crafter, stationery-​lover, cutesy-​girly-​things-​lover, anything paper-​related and «cool», you name it, it is here.
I had always heard about and had seen pictures of Paper Source stores via my friends in other states. I always thought, — «How pretty and amazing that place looks!» Man, those pictures are nothing compared to the real thing. You can’t imagine my happiness when I saw this on Main Street in Va Beach Town Center. I was like, «What?! When did this pop up?! I must go!!!»
When I walked in, all I kept saying, and thinking to myself was «Wow, OMG, I want this! I want that!» I really wasn’t even lying when I told my boyfriend that I want everything in this store!“
It’s bright, it’s spacious, the products are just awesome — top of the line, if you will. I totally love the wording on the wall– when you enter, look up, to the left; it says «Do something creative every day.» It’s my mantra. This place just makes you want to «make» things! lol
All the products alone are decoration enough! They have everything that any stationery or paper goods lover could dream of — stamps, markers, chalk, stickers, scrapbooking & card making goods, brands from Kate Spade to Bando, cellphone cases, washi (decorative) tape, frameable art, small decorative items for the kitchen (or any room in your house for that matter), calendars, items for DIY projects, party decorations such as banners, and you’ll see that the back is stocked with paper, card stock, and cards — you can order personalized stationery, invitations, planners, pretty much everything here!
I can’t rave about this place enough. I even made friends with some fellow crafty and stationery loving folks while shopping here. Liz, one of the associates, was great! Friendly, helpful, telling me about the store, products, answering my questions, and also telling me about the workshops they offer (they vary; there is an upcoming DIY decorative yet functional bowl — out of paper mache & balloons, and also a workshop for dimensional card making.) I definitely plan on attending one of these workshops in the future.
I can’t wait to return; I already know I will be a regular. Unilocal Duchess status, here I come! I will definitely spread the word about this place; you should check it out — you will definitely find great gifts here for ANYONE, including yourself! :D
