Paperchase is just about my favourite place to get stationery. I know that sounds a little sad, but the quality is seriously impressive and the designs are always beautiful. From intricate floral patterns embossed on the covers of fat spiral bound journals to adorable anime-style monsters on PVC pencil cases, this is the mother of all stationery stores and deserves to be worshipped.
It also sells bags, wrapping paper, lunchboxes and filing systems, which are (of course) beautiful to look at.
However, I admit that I would choose a recycled paper pad from Sainsburys (99p) than the one at Paperchase (£2.50) purely for cost reasons, but if I were a little richer
They also stock fantastic arts and crafts materials, for example some tiny rainbow pegs I bought (although still not sure what to use them for!) and crystal sticky-back hearts.
This place is a wonderland of stationery, so if you feel like purchasing some high-quality wrapping paper, get going! read more
