    Paper Source is a dying breed: it's a beautiful store filled with a huge variety of stationary supplies for invitations, announcements, birthdays, holidays, celebrations and anything else you can think of - plus, you can practically personalize anything using their designer cards, templates, waxes and stamps, ribbons, etc. They also have standard cards, calendars and planners, rubber stamps, inks, greeting cards, wrapping papers, and fun gifts that range from fancy to kitschy. The decor is ever-changing with the holidays and seasons so there is always something new that catches my eye when I visit. I especially love that the staff seem genuinely happy to be working there and I've consistently received friendly, helpful service.

    This is my happy happy happy place! I was so excited when they finally opened a Paper Source in the Sacramento area. Now I don't have to drive to the bay to go to one of my favorite stores. I love the staff here! Especially a shout out to Jessie and Angel who always make me feel welcome and loved! They just turned the store over from Valentine's to Flowers/Spring and everything is delightful and beautiful. I once again bought way too much stuff!! This is an awesome place to order wedding and party invitations or get help making your own custom invitations. They have an excellent selection of beautiful gift wrap and gift bags. I can always find a present here, and the things needed to wrap it too! They have classes that are reasonably priced and always fun. I buy all my envelopes here because you can get any color and they are very nice quality. FIVE stars all the way!! The store is in the Fountains shopping center across from the Galleria Mall. There is a Peet's coffee nearby and a Jack's Urban Eats across the street. Some street parking is available, or there is also a large lot behind all the stores.

    I needed an array of cards. Everyone seems to have a summer birthday or something. I have walked past this cute store so many times in the morning with my dogs I decided it was way overdo for me to go inside and check it out. It is well appointed in The Fountains center and I am sure they will do well. First off it's well stocked but easy to walk around in, meaning it's not junky looking. They have quality cards and papers for yes, every occasion without going over the top ridiculous. I love cards. Nice paper . Funny quirky cards . Not the same Ol thing you see at drug stores . Lovely cards . They carry wrapping paper by the sheet. Wow!! That's cool. They have a selection of interesting gifts too. I got the impression that they have a big business in invitations and announcements. There was one whole wall devoted to this. I still love paper products. Colors and messages on a natural texture ! I will stop in again , it is a fun place to explore.

    My beautiful wedding invitations that Pam helped me customize from paper source.

    Super cute but WAY over priced. Cost $8 per package (no matter what size) to be wrapped on top of $7 per piece of small wrapping paper.

    I Googled places to find envelopes in the Sacramento area, since my fiancé and I are going to be sending out our invitations soon, and Paper Source popped up.

    TuTugether - Staff member leading the rug tufting instruction session

    TuTugether

    We originally had a disappointing experience at the Roseville TuTogether rug tufting session,…read moreespecially because it did not feel as beginner-friendly as we expected. However, after sharing our concerns, management reached out and genuinely listened. They showed that they care about customer feedback and made a sincere effort to make things right and improve the overall customer experience. I really appreciate their professionalism, responsiveness, and willingness to address the situation. That kind of customer service means a lot and shows they value their guests. Because of their thoughtful gesture and effort to resolve our concerns, I'm updating my review to 4 stars.

    I'm finally getting around to writing a review for TuTugether Sacramento, and I have mixed feelings…read moreafter visiting twice. My first visit was with my boyfriend, and we had a genuinely great experience. I made a reservation the day before for two small rugs, and there were plenty of time slots available. When we arrived, the session went smoothly. The space itself is a mix of rug tufting and deco-den, with around a dozen tufting stations and a large table in the center for other crafts. It is a bit tight, especially with merchandise displayed near the front, but it still felt fun and creative. The activity took longer than expected, but we had a great time trying something new. My only critique from that first visit was that instruction was pretty minimal. The staff gave us the basics but didn't go into much detail or offer many tips--we mostly figured things out ourselves as we went. Because of that positive first experience, I brought my sisters for a second visit, expecting something similar. Unfortunately, this visit was very disappointing and really highlighted major issues with customer service. We arrived around 1:45 PM on a Saturday as a party of three. The store was busier than my first visit, but not full--there were still about 8-9 open tufting stations, and online reservations were still available. When we walked in, we went straight to the register and waited about 5-10 minutes without any acknowledgment, despite making eye contact with two employees working up front. Eventually, one employee asked if we had been helped. When I asked about availability for three people, she responded bluntly, "Absolutely not... it's really busy," and told us to come back later or book online--then immediately turned away from us. This was confusing, given the visible open stations and available booking slots online. To test this, I stepped outside and booked a reservation for 2:30 PM--just 20 minutes later. While we were waiting outside, we could clearly see that same employee sitting at a tufting station working on what appeared to be her own personal project. At that point, it felt less like they were "too busy" and more like she simply didn't want to help us or clear her station. When we returned, a different employee (who was much more helpful) checked us in with no issue. Ironically, she had to ask that same employee to clean up her station so we could be seated--confirming that space had been available the entire time. I also overheard her mention that she "wasn't sure what to do," so she told us to come back later, which honestly just reinforced how dismissive the earlier interaction was. On top of that, we were seated in a very hot area with direct sunlight, even though there were other open spots. It made the experience uncomfortable, and while the staff did acknowledge the heat, it didn't seem like much effort was made to relocate us. To end on a positive note, our rugs turned out really cute--but that was mostly due to our own effort. The pricing is also something to consider: small rugs are $88+tax, and there's a $20 deposit per rug online. It also felt like tax was applied twice (once on the deposit and again on the final payment), which was frustrating. Overall, I think this is a fun experience to try at least once, especially if you're looking for something creative and different. However, the inconsistency in service--especially during my second visit--really left a bad impression. The staff came across as inexperienced and disengaged, and it didn't feel like customer experience was a priority. I probably wouldn't return and would look into other tufting studios in the Sacramento area instead.

Fortunately there were workers circulating the store offering help to guide me to the new location of the items I needed. I went in for some classroom supplies and I was excited to find items I needed on sale. The service was great and I love to feel like I'm getting a deal. There was a "buy one get one half off" deal going on and I didn't know, but I also had points which took $15 dollars off my order. Wow. Super grateful for all those deals and the cashier was happy to put me in the loop. I'll definitely be back soon for more cute and practical classroom swag!

This store is know by teachers for educational supplies, tools, toys, etc. browsing through the store with my wife, it seems like most of the stuff geared towards elementary school kids, particularly the younger kids. There is seems to be a nice selection of items and educational aids throughout the store. My wife was able to easily spend the $50 gift card and then about $38 on top of that. If you sign up for their email list, they will give you a free store branded reusable bag. The employees seem very nice. It was a pleasant store to shop in. I'm sure my wife will want to come back sometime in the near future to purchase more stuff. We live closer to Walnut Creek, so next time, we may try going to that location to see if there are more items not available at this store.

    It was my first time at the Roseville Gem Faire and most likely the last as I was accused of…read morestealing. My friend and I were there for a few hours, and we were enjoying ourselves until we went to the last vendor. The owners had a tray of moldavites sitting out on a tray, and they were rather large pieces. I was very surprised by this because these rocks can be very pricey and had been left out at the edge of the table. I love moldavite, and I picked up a couple of pieces to inspect them and even asked the owners their weight and price. I also asked them to weigh a few pieces I bought earlier that day from another vendor. Since the pieces on the tray were large, they were pricy, and I put them back. A few minutes later, I walked away but returned as my friend was still hanging out at the same booth. The owner walked up to me and asked, "Did you pocket that piece?". I was so taken aback, but immediately told him no. I even asked him if he would like to search my purse multiple times, but he refused. He then proceeded to check under the table. Again, I asked if he wanted to check my purse too, and he again said no. I even told him I was surprised that those pieces had been left out. He said that he trusted people... clearly not. After we walked away, my friend told me he asked her if I had stolen the piece when I left the booth initially. He didn't ask her if she had pocketed it herself even though she was standing right next to me with access to the same tray. I can't help but wonder if there was a bit of racism involved there, too, since I'm not white and my friend is. Additionally, they had signs everywhere on their booth saying patrons were being recorded... so why he didn't check his cameras before or after accusing me I can't say. The experience was extremely humiliating. We left the venue right after because our mood soured. I will not be going back.

(I guess Saturdays and Sundays are busier, so they try to get people to come on Friday). I remembered that in the past, I had attended another gem faire, the San Mateo's International Gem and Jewelry Show, and loved it. This one was different. I wasn't sure if they charged for parking and my email to the site didn't receive a response. So I decided to just check it out today. Parking was plentiful but they charged $5 to park. :( At least I saved on the $7 admission, right? It was a fun expo but definitely NOTHING compared to the International Gem and Jewelry Show in San Mateo. That one is worth going to. This one seemed....okay. It seemed like most of the beads were from China (as evidenced by the majority of the vendors being Chinese). But I know there is quite a difference between beads made in China versus Czech ones or Swarovski crystals. I did end up getting some Swarovski beads that weren't cheap, but the colors were lovely. While it was fun to visit today, I don't think I'd go back to this gem faire. Maybe if parking were free and with free admission, I'd go. But paying $12 (admission and parking) wouldn't be worth it, IMO. It just wasn't that big of a faire to warrant that admission fee.
