The Stationery Movement
With email and text rapidly taking over the communication world, it is a true joy to stumble upon a stationery store on Manhattan’s side streets. Corresponders and ardent crafters alike are lured to the remaining paper shops by rainbow-hued displays, the resurgence in artisan papery, and endless supplies. The rows of bright materials are often more beguiling than the windows of a candy store.
The Flatiron-Chelsea border is sometimes considered the “craft district,” and is a center for many paper and stationery shops, including the larger warehouses like Paper Presentation. Where some paper stores keep themselves tucked away, such as Alpine Creative, and Ceci, and are open mainly for private appointments, others cover a broader field.
