Personalized Toss Bag


We recently picked up this monogrammed bag for one of our clients.  Typically we put the single initial Toss stickers on these bags - which always look cute.  However, we were out of "B" and this client really wanted her last name on the bag.  I really like the way that this looks and will definitely be doing more of these for clients.  What a great end of year teacher gift!  The bags plain are $25, then the single initial stickers are $5 or having it personalized is $14.  Not bad!  Call or email us if you don't have time to make it into the store and we can get this done for you.

Great Article by The New York Times



A dear friend of mine forwarded me THIS LINK to a New York Times article on the impact of the hand written note in this age of technology.  I could not agree more with the sentiments of this article.  Because we are so inundated with emails, texts, etc. the hand written note certainly makes an even larger impact.  

An exciting event that could not be timed any better is the Crane & Co. engraving plate sale which begins April 26th.  If you buy 100 pieces of engraved stationery you receive the engraving plates, which are reusable, for FREE!  And even if you don't need 100 pieces of engraved stationery, we are still thrilled to design custom stationery for you here in the store.

Pretty Guest Book


I recently had a sweet high school student and her mother come into the store for a guest book.   The two had recently been to a party where the honoree had a guest book that she had used for all the major milestones in her life: high school graduation, debut, college graduation, wedding and anniversary parties.  Such a sweet idea.  So the student and her mother selected a monogrammed guest book that she too can use for her life milestones.  I adore her selections - white silk dupioni with a white monogram and a blush satin bow.

Personalized Chalkboards




Back in October I wrote a post about some fabulous hand painted trays that one of our talented vendors designs and produces by hand.  Click HERE to reread that post and see what a truly capable artist she is.  So you can imagine my excitement when I opened my email this morning and saw that I had an email from her regarding some new chalk boards she is offering.  I think my kitchen
could use that die cut one...

Again - these come in an array of sizes and personalization options.  These would be awesome graduation gifts because they are so cute and priced in a great price point.  The pricing is as follows (from top photo down):
24" x 16" with oval plaque - $54 (+ shipping)
18" cartoon bubble - $40
20" cartoon bubble - $50
24" cartoon bubble - $60
16" x 16" die cut with plaque - $40 (+ shipping)

Call, email or stop by if you'd like to order one!
