new year & comments!

i keep thinking it's january already. : ) anyone else with me on this?

i'm really excited for the new year though, because it'll bring tons of new things along with it! new designs, new creations...i'm already working on a few new invitation/stationery pieces that i'm really excited about, and a few custom designs too.

in light of the new year that's coming up, we'd like to ask any of you that stop by this page to leave a comment/email us at papersilk@gmail.com with any comments or suggestions you have for us (something you want to see in the shop, how we update you guys, etc). since we started up this summer, these would be really helpful to us. please keep them constructive! thanks!

enjoy this week-between-christmas-and-new-years! : )

christmas is coming! christmas is coming!

once october hits, there's usually only three things on my mind: hot caramel apple cider, super chic scarves, and christmas. yes, that's right, i skip those other two major holidays and go straight to christmas.

i can't wait for the lights! and the snow! and all the decorations everywhere! and the muuuusiccc that lasts forever and a day.... oh the joy :D

so i like to get a head start on making my yearly (except last year, which i skipped..) christmas cards! and this year it'll be two of us, so there will be plenty for all to help spread the christmas spirit. here's a couple, and keep a lookout in our shop for more to come... :)

signed, sealed & delivered.

today was a great day : ) besides the perfect crisp & sunny fall weather, crystal and i got together and packaged some of our items to be sent out. we thought the packages were so cute that we just had to take pictures of them and post it..so here you are!

cute little brown packages, waiting to be mailed out


a close up. remember those tags? :)

in other news, i think i'll post some save-the-dates soon that can be customized and will match with those pretty placecards i posted about before. : )

have a great weekend!
