I have always had a love for excellent paperies. I seek them out shore, to shore and city to city. I have a long list of favorites, and am keen at finding them. Two more were added to my list this weekend when my family and I ventured down to one of America's last charming towns, Stillwater.
We have been going there, mostly to antique, since I can remember. It has changed over the years from charming, but middle of the road, to yuppy. There are now small gifts shops and coffee houses nestled in between the antique barns. It is evolving, but still lovely. It reminds me of the smaller towns right outside of New York City. 
1) Rose Mille. They sell rolls of vintage wallpaper, glitter letters, a plethora of unique and rare ribbon, not to mention women's clothing and some hot jeans.
2) Pulp Fashion. Okay, it my dream home that's how I'd keep sheets of paper. Isn't that built-in fantastic? I had to take a picture, I think the clerk thought I was nuts. They have a lot of lovely stuff, especially wedding and baby items for creating your own invitations or thank-you notes.
Other favorite Paperies that I devour:
•Papersource. Quality products, especially for cardmaking.
•Kate's Paperie. Amazing. Their online store is pretty good, too. They have two Manhattan locations.
•Archivers. This is the scrapbooking mecca that is wonderful. It's a chain and mostly in the midwest, to my knowledge
•Collage. I worked here in high school. The owner is a doll and the products are lovely.
This summer I plan on going to:
•Dear Lizzie. Just the photos on their website make me want to go there and drink the hot coco! I know it's most of a gift/home shop, but still : D
