Those look nice, InsomniaQueen! The part with your name and address, did you print that or do you have a stamp?

I don't think my favourite online shop for stationery was mentioned in this thread yet: stationeryheaven.nl/I guess I'm more for colorful and fun than elegant and sophisticated Also love this Dutch stationery brand: www.bekkingblitz.com/(Why are Dutch so good at making/selling stationery that I like?!)
There is one great Finnish shop too, but as they so far only deliver to Finland it's no use advertising it The postage costs for ordering from overseas are outrageous, so I stick to European shops. It narrows the selection, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Besides, isn't it more fun for my overseas penfriends to receive exotic European stationery?

Hi! We all know that snail-mailing not only takes some time but hurts our wallets at times. But we all love it and we devote everything to it. I am an impulsive shopper, so I purchase tons whenever I have the money and I feel like it. I was wondering how much do you usually spend a month or whenever you make your purchases for your stationary stuff? Do you also find it hard to not throw everything in your shopping basket? What are some ways that you deal with this? What do you pay for the most? How much was your most expensive order or shopping for stationary? In order to keep it under budget, what are some places that you obtain your stationary from? (stickers, paper, cut-outs, scrapbook stuff etc) I have been ordering a lot from Aliexpress but it takes awhile to get to.
Yard sales, thrift stores, and Dollar Tree.
You may now all laugh.
PS: I was once traumatized by reading the story of someone who was stuck in the house, wanted to write a letter, BUT HAD NO PAPER.
I now own enough paper, journals, notebooks, pens, envelopes and other related objects to open a very size-worthy e-store.

That looks lovely, InsomniaQueen. I spent last night folding and assembling envelopes from ledger and graph paper I purchased a few weeks ago. I still have about 3 or 4 full pads of scrapbook paper I can/should use but I’m running out of storage space for all these envelopes I keep making.

I do like wandering around Flying Tiger... I usually end up buying stickers and decorative tapes!
