The National Stationery Show: So Much More Than Cards

Non-stationery goods being sold at the National Stationery Show is alternately one of the weirdest and best parts of the whole week. While on the one hand it can mean crazy whirligigs flying above booths stocked with Halloween masks and giant Miley Cyrus posters, it also means great independent booths displaying handmade cutting boards, colorful lighting cords and hilarious coasters that make perfect sense alongside some of the other paper goods people will be bringing home with them. We’ve shared our favorite cards, posters and gift wrap from this year’s show already, so I’m rounding things out with my favorite pieces that were outside of the paper category. I hope these pieces will make you laugh and smile as much as they did for me. xo, grace
