rock paper scissors

don't hesitate to ask....

Have you ever come in the shop and noticed us hard at work behind the front desk?  Or maybe you’ve noticed a “meeting” going on at our back table? Ever wondered what we’re up to?  

Well, we’re a little bit different than other retail shops because we also offer custom stationery, invitations, announcements, holiday cards, and wedding invitation suites like those seen below.  Believe it or not, there are lots of steps that go into a custom order that keep us busy. Design options are pretty much endless and the proof (or editing) process can take a bit of time to ensure the client gets exactly what they’re hoping for!  From the initial in-person meeting all the way through until the delivery of the final product our team has to do a lot of coordinating...and paperwork!

We work to be friendly and greet our customers, but don’t ever hesitate to ask us questions, even if we look busy!  We’re always here and happy to help you in any way we can.

If you’re interested in getting invitations or personalized stationery email or call us to set up an appointment!  email: [email protected] phone: 434.979.6366
