Choosing The Best Stationery Set
A stationery set is something you shouldn’t overlook when you are adding to your personal accessories. When you do choose, make sure your favorite stationery set makes a statement about you and your personality. After all, each person who receives a note card from you will get a better sense of you who you are.
There are many variables to consider if you are getting a stationery set for girls or are having your stationery sets personalized. You may want to consider letterpress printing for your cards. This offers one of the fines looks and feel for your printed piece. The papers are thick and usually you can get 100% cotton papers which just add a uniqueness that other papers can’t.
Let me tell you why it matters. Most papers are thin and are used for digital printing, like Tinyprints and photo cards. Everybody has these and they are quite tacky when used for a personal set of notecards. You should anticipate spending a little bit more for you cards as they will be on much thicker papers. This is where letterpress can set you apart. The great thing is letterpress pushes the ink into the paper so you have this noticeable impression that can be seen on both sides. Generally, the thicker the better, and the more impression the better. You still want the ink to look nice though. There should be no “slurred” images or bleeding ink, just nice and clean lines.
I also recommend using a quality company that really knows the ins and outs of not only the printing end of things but the layout or typesetting of the stationery set. This really makes a difference from a design perspective. Treatment of fonts and typography is almost always overlooked and or messed up by the run o the mill companies that have “designers” employed to mass produce your stationery. Don’t go there. Stick with the smaller boutiques that are actually owned by real designers who know what they are doing!
With all this in mind good luck in choosing the appropriate stationery set and I look forward to receiving a card from you!
