    A bachelorette party is a monumental event worthy of some great invitations. Meg K., a designer at Paper Source, planned her friend’s bachelorette party in Nashville. Using Paper Source products (and a whole lot of creativity), Meg fashioned the perfect invitation for an action-packed weekend.

    Meg used our Envelope Liner Kit and coordinating Mint & Gold Fine Paper for a pop of color. This was a great way to finish the design with a professional look without breaking the bank.

  5. DIY: Washi Tape Ideas

    One of our favorite and simplest ways to get crafty is….with tape! We love washi and paper tape! With these DIY projects, your everyday items will look new, colorful and fun. Washi tape originates from Japan and has a typical masking tape texture, but is far from dull and beige. Washi tape is most often made from the bark of trees native to Japan (this is why some tape that is similar to washi tape is simply called paper tape if it does not come from Japan).

    Washi tape can literally be used on anything. It appears delicate but can actually withstand a lot. The best part? If you don’t like where you put it, just take it right off. It won’t damage or leave sticky marks on anything! It is the easiest DIY crafting you’ll ever do, so even if you think you aren’t too crafty this will quickly change your mind.

  6. Crazy for Canning Jars

    Tall or short, clear or colorful, empty or full, on paper or in person (or even on a tea towel) – we are crazy for canning jars! These classic jars charm us with their endless possibilities. They are, of course, perfect for canning fruits, vegetables and your favorite jelly or salsa – but if you don’t own a jar wrench yet, there are still plenty of way to express your love for canning!

    They make for great storage with our chalkboard stickers or tags.
