Stationery is no longer a luxury! In this day and age, we are finding that most people (yes, men AND women) have stationery on hand. People are seeking personal contact and valuing the time and effort in writing and sending a letter or note. Yes, the hand written note is back!

I recently tweeted that the only thing nicer than getting a hand written note is sending one and I had a great repsonse from Tweeters who agreed! interesting non? Considering this is an online community of professionals!
These sets are perfect gifts too! Share the joy of writing!

AS SEEN IN: Real Weddings Magazine


Our favourite wedding magazine, Real Weddings has featured the Kolo Vineyard and Matchbook albums. These paper albums are a great guest gift or part of a table setting so guests can leave personalised messages and polaroids!




The Kolo Vineyard is now available in two sizes: the original 5" x 7" and the new 7" x 8". Crafted of fine, pebble grain paper, with a ribbon bound spine that adds a refined look to this Kolo classic. Other enhancements include debossing around the cover window and a new color palette.




The new Kolo Matchbook album epitomizes the adage "less is more." This 4" x 6" pebble grain paper album has a minimal design that features a fold-over matchbook cover and a ribbon-bound spine. A handy scrapbook page leads off (ideal as a title sheet), followed by five sheets with removable, protective sleeves (holds 10 photos). The signature Kolo cover window lets you personalize the Matchbook with a photo or artwork.



Both albums are perfect for non-wedding events too! Be creative: personalise your own wedding favours, birth announcements, greeting cards or mini artist (of any age!) portfolios. They are lightweight and flat enough to mail inexpensively, making it a cinch to share photos with friends and family. They are both sized to fit nicely in the medium Havana Box, for safe storage.

priced @ $17.95 each, they are available in 6 divine colours!
Explore the Kolo collection www.kolo.com

Real Weddings has ALWAYS been my favourite wedding magazine and has been nationally and internationally awarded. Kirsten and her team create a a magazine with integrity. Only a select group of amazing suppliers have been selected to be included in the magazine, each with a creative stylish edge. You will find information on EVERYTHING you need for a wedding - not just the dress, ring, flowers and cake!!




Each issue has a theme running through the entire magazine. The annual Style Issue is a must-have. It has incredible attention to detail, to help you create the wedding that is a true reflection of you as a couple.

AS SEEN IN: Modern Home Magazine



We love it when magazines feature our products!
This month Modern Home has featured our Coco Flamingo scalloped note cards and notebooks.


We are always trying to promote stationery as a great gift that you can personalise to the style and tastes of the lucky receiver.

We all need writing paper and notecards on hand.
We have all had occassions when we needed to whip up a quick letter or note;


~ Want to send a Thank You note to someone who has done something really nice or gone out of their way for you?

~ Have you missed buying a birthday card or want to send something different to say 'Hip Hip Horray'?

~ Want to send a short letter with a little momento you are sending?

~ Want to let someone you are thinking of them?

~ Be romantic - write a series of love letters and leave them around the house, in the car, in the knickers draw or under a pillow...

~ You are over sms, email and social-media messages and want to connect with someone you cherish (and they can keep it forever too!)

~ Don't you love getting a card or letter for no reason at all??



Whatever it is, remember:
Good Manners are always in Fashion!!




We have a wide range of shaped note cards in Flamingo, Lavender, Peppermint and Pink/Choc:

BIT ABOUT ME!

Hello!

I thought I would cut my Bio short so that you can see all of the other things we have here! What to do with all the other info that gives you an insight into me and my business?
So I can put it here!

Over the past 20 years I have acquired many skills and things I love!

I am a paper lover, retail specialist, trainer, consultant, product designer, wholesaler and now adding blogger!!

I started Paper Magnolia in 2004, bringing exquisite stationery to Australia and developing my own products in response to the market. Fine Stationery is back in style and Australians are once again embracing fine, quality stationery. We work with great retailers from around Australia and New Zealand.
We pride ourselves on having products that are 'retail ready' as they have been developed with the market in mind. We understand the needs and limitations of retail and how best to work with retailers. Being a Grace Bros Management Cadet means that my knowledge and expertise in retail is based on a practical experience from the ground up!

Magnolia Solutions is our newest 'product', really a 'service', which has organically developed from our close relationships with customers and applying our retail marketing skills. Retail is hard work and we understand the vital elements required to create a successful retail business.

Magnolia Solutions offers customers creative marketing solutions for their retail business. We are working with retailers in all product categories. Despite the current economic climate, we are working to bring the theatre back in to retail while increasing profits.

Our packages have been developed to help customers as much, or as little, as they need it.
We offer packages from; a Business Health Check, Communications Package, Promotions Package and Full Embedded Support.

As with any business we have been evolving. We also work with some clients as their external Marketing Department which has been great fun and wonderful to see some projects that have been on the drawing board for a long time come to fruition and be successful!

Results are immediate, as is customers’ renewed enthusiasm in fine-tuning their business and getting on with what they love - being great retailers!


Enjoy the Blog!

Don't forget to leave your comments and let me know if there are any topics you would like explored!

Cheers!
Nancy :-)
