Jonesin’ For A Good Piece Of Paper

Jonesy Stationary

Posted By: Whitney Casser
-

I love paper—I'm the kind of person who gets truly excited about paper goods. Forget the iPhone or Blackberry; I keep a paper calendar and relish the feeling of swiping a slick pen across its surface each and every time a new appointment needs to be added. Forget the iPad or eReader; I buy physical books and fold their pages after writing in the margins. I'm addicted to paper. Guilty as charged.

Needless to say, every time I need to scribble a note, send a letter or throw a fiesta, I use the real thing. No eCards or electronic party invites for this little lady. Give me paper! So lucky for me, I just discovered Jonesy: an eco-friendly stationary line that uses soy based inks and 100% recycled FSC paper. It makes me feel a little better about my consumption. What's more, the graphics are simple and sleek, especially the baby/kids stuff. I particularly love the old-fashioned pram, a single cow napping in the crook of the moon and the purple pacifier.

Also, be sure to browse their Sick Kids Foundation collection. All proceeds go to aid families in financial need.

Happy writing!

Starting at $4.50, jonesy.ca
