    Super cute store in old town Alexandria. Meets all your needs for birthday, anniversary or special occasion cards. Lots of stationary, craft supplies and even fun games/toys! Found a kanooodle here after waiting months to recover one I bought online. Staff is so nice and attentive. Store was clean and organized!

    A very cool store in Old Town Alexandria. This was a diamond in the rough, a lagniappe, an unexpected and pleasant find as we were visiting Old Town Alexandria. This is one of the many stores on King Street. It is located on the south side of the street between a boutique and a Mexican restaurant. The shop has a LOT of items in it. As you enter there is a ramp with some of their sales right by the entrance. If it is made with paper I believe that they have it or can get it. They have an entire display of different wrapping paper designs, a cutting station, writing implements, supplies for journaling and the list goes on. Their Facebook site states, "We inspire you to Do Something Creative Every Day!" and I believe it. It looks like they have tried to make it accessible for all. It seemed that they had something for everyone. I could have spent a fair amount of time just looking at all of the varied items in the store. The store was very clean even though it seemed pretty busy. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. The prices were reasonable for items in the store. Overall, a really neat store that certainly inspired me to do something creative and write this review. I hope it inspires you if you choose to visit the store.

    Nifty shop to pick up all kinds of wrapping paper, greeting cards, crafts, stationary, gifts, and more. Some things definitely on the upscale and artsy side. Other items on the cool and funky kitschy side. Plenty to choose from for both men and woman. A lot of stuff is a bit on the humorous side too which makes a great gift idea for those with a goofy sense of humor. Lots of merchandise to look at and choose from. We picked up some paper and cards for upcoming birthdays. Friendly and helpful staff. Prices vary based on item but expect to pay a bit more here for the quality. It's a terrific store.

    Nice store, feels like in library, but it is a fun library. We came here for a wrapping service. Ryan (from the name-tag), who was wrapping the gifts for us has done really good job of wrapping something that would be very difficult to wrap. Overall everything was positive, but it is expensive. You like many things and you want to buy them, but you look at how much it costs and it is disappointing.

    This shop and the one in Georgetown cute is the word. The staff are so friendly and helpful. For our one year anniversary we wrote each other live notes on beautiful handmade paper. The staff was so sweet. We will always remember our love notes.

    I know where I'm going to find that special gift for my wife the next time I want to do something small, but special for her. This place is packed with all of those little things that my wife likes: crafty, fun, colorful items that are not the things you will find at the big box stores. Think if it as the place you go when you want her to feel that you put time and effort into getting her something for her- not just that you popped into Walmart and got something from the card aisle. They have knowledgeable folks who work there who will make suggestions to you, which is a help for guys like me, that "this would look great in this bag with this bow." Bingo... I'm sold! From wrapping paper to off the wall stamps and crafts, to glassware and fun things to fill a stocking- I'll be back here a few weeks before my next special occasion because I know it is the keeper of future brownie points.

    See all

    One of the only remaining stores in Virginia for papercrafting, this shop with very limited hours…read morein tiny Clifton, Va 20 minutes from Dulles Airport is a rare gem. The owner is a lovely lady who keeps limited hours making it worth your while to schedule an outing here. She offers a number of frankly unprecedented shopper discounts and loyalty perks. The store itself is off the main street and not in a place for walkin patronage. Rather it is a little gem tucked in with seemingly a very loyal clientele. My friend and I made a special trip here and regular customers were stopping in throughout our visit. The store is full of wonderful paper products from all over the world. I purchased papers from Germany, Japan and Hungary to name a few of the lovely, artistic and unusual papers . The shop carries many current and popular brands usually available only on line. The shop also carries many items for altered art projects and paper crafting , metal dies, stamps, inks, and mixed media. There is a small well stocked classroom where classes in various techniques are generally held on alternate Saturdays. If you are a paper crafter, card maker, or altered or mixed media artist, support this shop and tell your like minded friends. This shop is well worth the drive and visit!

    If I could give this place a milliom stars, I would. I would like to come here more often; however,…read moreI come here once or twice a year. The owner, Ronnie, is just the best. Inventory is great. In with the new, out with the old. The price is just amazing. Absolutely LOVE this place.
