There are certain things we traditionally associate with the Holidays: gift wrap, cards, cute stationery, bright gift bags; and it always makes me feel good to sit down and wrap the presents or sign a thank you card. Last week I discovered PAPYRUS, a convenient one-stop shop for all of your Holiday essentials, and the perfect place to pick up gifts and souvenirs for your family and friends.

Founded in 1950 as an importer of European paper products, PAPYRUS has expanded exponentially after opening their very first retail location at Berkeley in 1973. Today PAPYRUS has more than 200 locations across the U.S. and Canada, as well as a user-friendly online store. I also found out there’s a brand new “Little Treasure” store that just opened at South Bend’s University Park Mall [if you live in Michiana you know where that is]. I often shop in that area, so I plan to stop by and check out the seasonal offerings next time I’m in town! I’ll let you know on Facebook and Twitter when I update this post with pictures from the store.

PAPYRUS celebrates the everyday events that make every moment special, and that notion is very close to my own philosophy. That’s why I scoured their online store and selected a few lovely trinkets you could pick up to make someone’s day! View Post
