Paper Source is a wonderful store, with several locations in the Chicagoland area, but my favorite is in Evanston. Ok, the Oak Park store is very nice, too. Paper Source is one of those old-fashioned-idea-new-take-on-it kind of places. They carry load of clever cards, lots of sold-by-the-sheet papers that are truly beautiful, and many things related to paper, including pens, notebooks, ribbon, and so on. Paper Source offers lots of great classes, so get on their mailing list next time you visit. There is so much great stuff here, you just might find yourself longing for the good old days when people actually still wrote letters instead of emails.
