They did have some stationary like cards, stickers, washi tape, journals, and more but everything was very expensive. There wasn't a large range of any of those items I mentioned, just a handful of journals, maybe five stickers, etc. The store also sold some home goods, purses, and other gift items but nothing that made me say "wow". Overall, the selection was very expensive. I felt let down by the recommendation of this store and won't be back.

Located in Old City, Omoi Goods is an exceptional shop for not only stationary supplies like inks, stamps, journals, and pens, but also beautiful greeting cards, BAGGUs, stickers!!, and more! The employees were soooooo lovely and polite when I went and I must highlight that they created their own totally free (!!) pamphlet guide to Philly!! It's truly a labor of love that includes their own suggestions on shops, restaurants, cafes, food and drinks to order, parts of town to visit, even a whole map of the city??

After seeing an amazing birth announcement done by Lauren brown studios, I contacted them about…read moredoing the logo for my new coffee shop. After a one on one consultation, it was clear that Lauren could see my vision for the shop. There is something to be said for working directly with your designer, especially when you are investing so much of yourself into a project. I believe that Lauren Brown was excited for the concept I was working on and totally poured herself into the design of my logo. After seeing what Lauren put together for me, I hired her to do all of my branding. My shop is only a couple of months old now and doing well. I have to give Lauren some credit for our initial success. Our logo and branding very effectively communicates who we are and attracts our target market. My inspiration for taking time to write this comes from a compliment paid to me by a customer. They first asked who had done the design and then went on to say that they were also a graphic designer ( he shared his portfolio with me and it was impressive). This guy then admitted that he is usually quite critical when it comes to logos and branding and finds most people get it wrong. But, he said, in this case, he couldn't find a single thing he'd do differently!

Once you meet Lauren and have the opportunity to review her portfolio, you can see her creative talent and passion for meeting the needs of her clients. Lauren far exceeded our expectations with all of our wedding stationery. From the first phone call complimenting our save the dates, we knew we made the right decision. Pricing for all our stationery components were fair and her prompt response to meeting our deadlines were a life saver. Definitely would recommend her to friends and family. Thanks Lauren Brown Studio!

This is a cute little shop with high end cards and gift items, plus the option to design your own stationary. I definitely enjoyed the eye candy, but couldn't see myself shopping here often -- maybe more for inspiration or a special occasion, since their cards average out to ~$5 a pop. They do have a nice variety of classy and cheeky cards. If you are a letterpress nerd who loves the feel of luxury cardstock, it will be delightful. I particularly appreciate that they carry quite a lot of cards and products by Emily McDowell, a graphic designer I much admire. (PS she makes the best "get well" cards, if you haven't encountered them before.)

They're extremely professional and creative. They walk you through your options and ensure you make the choice that is right for you and your budget- NOTE - make sure you mention your budget so you do not fall in love with something that will completely destroy you! I was impressed by the many options they presented for the invites, but also how well they coordinated our invites with our table number displays. They are expensive, but honestly they're worth it. Such wonderful work and extremely fast turn around times!

I wasn't familiar with wedding invitation etiquette, inserts, etc and both of them were very knowledgeable and helped walk us through the whole process. They had a beautiful selection of paper and styles to select from so we could create our timeless and elegant wedding invites. We also live in PA but got married in DE and they were great with allowing a mix of in person and e-mail communications throughout the process to make sure we were happy with the final product. Not to mention our invites were reasonable and tax free! We had so many people comment on our invites and other paper goods and how they all complemented each other so perfectly. Will definitely be using for other events in the future and definitely recommend if you're looking for personable and professional service with an excellent product at a good rate. Thanks again!!

That said they definitely update some of their selection frequently and are the perfect place to get a gift for someone! It can be hard to move around the store when it is busy. The back is also a little hard to navigate when they have shipments come in. This would be my only reasons for 4 stars instead of 5 :)

Extremely disappointed by my visit to Paper on Pine…read more I stopped in after noticing some of the cool-looking gifts in their window. The store is pretty large so me and my group of 2 other people were inside browsing for 15-20 minutes. There was one employee, an older man with glasses, and the whole time he did not acknowledge us even though we were the only people in the store. A hello would have been nice, but my experience was still mostly positive at that point. When I approach the counter to pay, the man working heads over to the other end of the store to tidy some shelves. Me and my group wait patiently for a few minutes before he comes back, gives a rude look, and asks "That all?" I cordially say "Yes, thank you", pay for my items and head out. As I am heading home and already out of Philadelphia, I glance at the receipt and notice he rang up what were supposed to be $3 stickers as $6 magnets. I don't mind paying $6 for a sticker, but blatantly charging for a different, higher-ticket item is outright fraud and deception. The customer service already left a bad taste in my mouth and this was the cherry on top.
