Welcome to stationary heaven, where glowing to-do lists and perfect wedding invitations are born and, we can only assume, the sweetest love notes and most respectable thank you cards might possibly go to retire. Chelsea Shukov and Jamie Grobecker are the adorable founders of Sugar Paper, LA’s premiere paper goods shop and custom letterpress stationary creators. Stuffed to the brim with desk and mailbox goodies worth swooning over, Sugar Paper is one of our, well, sweetest neighbors – their Brentwood shop just a stone’s throw from the original Pressed Juicery location. With the time and again approval of Martha Stewart and celebrity fans galore, we knew we wern’t the only ones drooling over these divine papetiers.
We stepped inside Sugar’s dreamy studios this month to share a glimpse behind-the-scenes with the women who make our desktops and mailboxes pretty as can be. What we found exceeded out wildest stationary dreams: vintage printing presses, chalkboard walls, light-filled spaces filled with custom stationary (for a few celebrities whose names we recognized) and more golden stripes and polka-dots than we could count. The office’s inspiration boards themselves warrant a second feature and we’re saving details of Sugar’s inspiration board amazing-ness for a whole other story from Chelsea and Jamie.
For now, enjoy a glimpse in at a morning with the ladies as they respond to our morning questionnaire and smile for the Chalkboard cameras. Catch a glimpse of their new capsule collection for Target stores too!
