A new direction…

We love what we do here, from the products we sell to the blog that we update. Lately, though, you may have noticed a lack of updating. We could make excuses, but we won’t. This blog does need help, and we’re not afraid to ask for it.

In truth, this blog is for you, our readers. Our goal is to inform and inspire you, and occasionally feature new products of ours that we love. With that in mind, we’re hoping to take this blog in a new direction. The direction, though, is up to you. Since this blog is for you, we want it to be about you and your interests… what do you, dear readers, want to see? What would help you, interest you, inspire you? Is it baby-themed stationery ideas, party planning tips, etiquette rules that you have never gotten a straight answer on? Is it real-life uses of our products? Is it glimpses into the lives of other readers? Let us know, and we’ll do what we can to make it happen.

Perhaps what we have loved most about our blog is the opportunity it has given us to peer into the lives of our readers. Our “Desk” series accomplishes this well, and over the last year we have featured many beautiful and charming desks, offices and people. Would you like us to continue this series? If you are a blogger/designer/stationer extraordinaire/crafter/photographer (or anyone, really) and would like yourself, your desk and your business featured on our website, contact us! We’d love to feature your darling desk!

We want to take the interactions of our “Desk” series and carry it over to some new features. We want to interact with you more. Here are a couple of our ideas:

• We are passionate about stationery, and we love helping people find the right stationery for their needs. If you are planning a party or need help picking out stationery, contact us. Give us the scenario, and we’ll help you… and feature you and your selections on the blog.
• If you have already thrown the party, used our cards, or bought our fabulous office products (who doesn’t love pretty file folders?) to organize your space… tell us, send us pictures, and we’ll feature you on the blog.

If you have other ideas, let us know. As we said before, we want this blog to be interesting and useful to you, but we need to hear from you to make that happen. So leave a comment or send us an email, and hopefully we can work together to make this blog what it needs to be: an inspiration.
