Want to be inspired to so something creative? If you haven’t stopped in yet, now is the time. Paper Source opened in Raleigh in the spring but somehow, this is the first time I’ve been in. The store carries beautiful paper, invitation, greeting cards, calendars and crafts–you name it. It’s like a fancier version of Michaels. They even have a line of Kate Spade paper products! I have a feeling I will be there a lot.
Paper Source, 4151 Main at North Hills St, Raleigh, NC 27609. 919-783-5580.
Former Art Director for Home Magazine, Heather Leahy Zachariah, left her career in publishing after baby number number one. She now works from home as a freelance graphic designer and a chauffeur to her 3 busy kids. "Working on TipsFromTown has been a wonderful outlet for me. It renewed my love of publishing where I can design colorful, enticing pages online and allows me to share the things I love about being a mom." Heather grew up in Shaker Heights, Ohio, a place that still is near and dear to her. " After living in Brooklyn for 18 years and studying Graphic Design at Pratt Institute, she now lives in the Jersey burbs. "I love living so close to NYC, but in my heart, I'm an Ohio girl."
