The Paper Place

Sometimes the best plans are no plans at all - just a quiet wander through paper, stationery, and all the little things that make you want to create.

New notebooks, beautiful sheets, treasures you didn’t know you needed… it’s all here waiting to be discovered.

Stop by this weekend and see what you find. ✨

We know December can feel like a whirlwind, so we’ve extended our hours to make your days a little smoother!

Pop in after work, take your time, and enjoy a calm moment in the shop.

And honestly? We’re happy for the extra time to see all of you this season ❤️

✨ The stars have aligned… into 500 tiny pieces. ✨

The House of Astrology puzzle by Galison features all twelve zodiac signs, illustrated by Michelle Berlin and accented with a little shimmer of gold foil.

Perfect for astrology lovers, puzzle enthusiasts, or anyone who’s ever said “just one more piece” and suddenly looked up two hours later. 🧩💫

📦 Just a heads up! The Paper Place will be closed on Monday and Tuesday while we conduct our annual inventory count.

If we finish up early on Tuesday, we’ll open the doors as soon as we’re done - so feel free to check in then!

Thanks for your understanding✨

The post we did not want to make…

As of August 29th, the US government has removed the de minimis exemption of $800 on goods coming into the USA. This means that all orders, no matter the value, may now be charged import taxes and fees when they arrive.

We have heard these fees could be quite high, and the last thing we want is for anyone to be surprised with these extra costs. If a parcel is refused, we not only have to pay to have it shipped back to us, but we also lose what we already spent to send it to you in the first place. For a small shop like ours, we cannot afford to absorb these costs.

For now, we are pausing US shipping through our online store while we figure out the best way forward. We know many of you use our papers for your own businesses, and we hate the thought of cutting off access to the products you count on. We also know how hard it is when something completely outside of your control affects your livelihood.

If you are still happy to place an order knowing you will be responsible for the new fees, please email us and we can process it for you directly.

This change is a huge blow for us, as so many of our wonderful customers are in the USA. Losing such a large source of our online revenue is especially hard when it already feels like we are constantly navigating a shifting and challenging economic landscape for small businesses in Canada.

Your support means the world to us, and we’re looking forward to the day we can send our products your way again. Thank you for being such an important part of our story.

The wait is over - our beloved block printed papers from are back in stock!

Handmade in India on cotton paper using carved wooden blocks (one for each colour-gold included

They’re swoon-worthy, and truly special. Come see for yourself! 👀
