Everything is pricey, but if you think of this shop as a place you go to find a high end gift, then I think it's a great place. I would especially recommend it for Mother's Day goodies. Your mom needs one of their candles. Also, did I mention they are friendly and happy to help you look?

Located in the quaint, lively, historic retail district of Carytown, Merrymaker proudly holds the title of Richmond's oldest stationery shop. The space itself is small-but-mighty, with everything from locally-made greeting cards to an impressive selection of planners, calendars, and notepads in literally every shape, size, and color. They also have rack upon rack of specialty wrapping paper, and an entire corner of the store is dedicated to custom stationery. At the front of the shop, you'll find a jawdropping selection of pens (including fountain pens) in every shape, color, and price range. Of course, I couldn't leave here without a small notebook (or two), a couple of lovely postcards to send to friends back home, and the determination to start my own fountain pen hobby "someday." Bonus points for the super friendly woman at the front counter!

They have a great selection of cards, journals, pens, planners, and wrapping papers. It's one of those shops that you could leave and come back in 30 minutes and discover something new. It's curated with love. The people who work here are extremely passionate and helpful. I came here with my manager and we had a blast. She ended up getting a few postcards and a travel planner. I fell in love with a small journal I got for about $16. I loved the journal because it reminded me of the Canal Saint-Martin, I'm excited to use it for card game scoring. There is really something for everyone here. There are lined journals, blank ones, squared one, and more. There is a huge variety of planners with different layouts. It felt like they had something for every preference. Not to mention, the fanciest pens I've ever laid my eyes on. I highly recommend checking this local gem out.

I stopped at UPS and instead of driving somewhere else to get wrapping paper, I stopped in Paper Plus. It smelled sooo good in there and the service was wonderful. I was promptly greeted and shown where the wrapping paper was. I liked the selection a lot and although it was pricey, I left with two rolls of paper (for $20, mind you). I was mad at myself all the way home for spending that much on wrapping paper, BUT! When I got home, I immediately noticed the amazing quality of the paper. It was thick and beautiful paper! It was actually a pleasure to wrap gifts with it. I used up both of the rolls and now my gifts look amazing under the tree. I saw a bunch of other really nice items in the shop, but I was on a mission and didn't get to mill around much. Look forward to my next visit!
