Greetings from the Letter Press

Friends.
I have an obsession.
I am in love with paper.
It's real. It's for real.
Finding a good paper store is like finding a good cell phone provider. There are many that vie for your attention but usually one or two that can fulfill your needs. Especially when one of those needs, is the need to be green (hey, the environment shouldn't have to pay for my love affair) - that is why I bring you this blog about the Paper Doll on Division.

The Holiday Season has passed us, Valentines have been mailed, but that is no reason to stop the presses. Friends, there is nothing I find fancier than a hand written note. Honest.

Do yourself a favor and sit down with some hot coca, a great pen and some fancy paper. Send a letter to the folks back home, that friend you miss, or that sibling far away. Tell them about all the fancy things you can do in Chicago during the winter months (and yes, it is still winter in March) so that they understand that, sure it's cold, but it's ok! There are things like ice skating and really cool waves that freeze on the lake mid move! Write them and let them know that you love them. That you miss them. That you would like your copy of TLC's Crazy, Sexy, Cool back. Please and thank you.

Whatever the tenor of your letter or the green of your thumb - Paper Doll has got your back.
