We all organize our references and resources in different ways, and mine are almost always "old school." I have a notebook full of all my favorite websites and resources in every category you could ever dream of. I will eventually get all of it on computer, but for now my old steno pad is my bible, of sorts.
One of the larger categories is the "Paper and Stationery" category. I am going to share my top 5 sources on the web for paper and stationery category. Now...this section of my notebook has probably 50 entries, so this is the current short list. My top choice is:
personalized stationery choices are graphic and clean
great desk calendars
decorative wrapping paper...hello!
next...www.delphinepress.com
beautiful stationery
next choice: www.redstamp.com
great personalized flat cards!
I know, you have already run out of money but...the next choice is: www.hellolucky.com
great colors and letterpress cards are tops!
and last but not least...www.lindaandharriett.com
calendars and stationery!
Now, if you cannot find some incredible stationery and/or a beautiful calendar in that collection, I would be astonished. I have always read that one should have a stationery wardrobe and it stuck with me and I have used it as my excuse to buy beautiful papers and stationery ever since! If you would like to learn more about a stationery wardrobe, visit www.dempseyandcarroll.com, where they have a detailed description of one and some amazing choices for stationery as well.
The Second Featured Top 5 List is compiled of some of my favorite creative resources. These sites have some of the most interesting and gorgeous craft items ever. Have you ever had a morning when you wake up and the first thought that comes to mind is: "What I really need is some french beaded flora!"- Of course you have, we have all had that morning. Or..."I just know I would feel better if I ordered some hand dyed silk ribbon." Again, a very common first morning thought for all of us. Well now, you know where to go!
For brocade ribbon, one of my favorite types of ribbon ( I have seen amazing jewelry made from vintage brocade ribbon), my choice is: www.britexfabrics.com

When you really need a Wendy Addison fix or much more, www.tinseltrading.com.
