Paperworld is a huge fair for paper, stationery, crafts and office supplies in Frankfurt – and a must-see for any paperlover. I feel like I’m still recovering from all the wonderful impressions…
My personal highlights: Beautiful journals and new paper designs by Jackie for Bindewerk, finally a catalogue from Carta Pura (Munich) so I can order via E-Mail and a secret tip from Brevi Manu on where we’ll soon be able to find their amazing journals, tapes and notepads in Cologne!
I’ll keep you posted!

Wow! I think “death by paper” is the right title! :D We don’t have anything like this :( It’s amazing!
aaawh! Looks pretty much like heaven… maybe we make it there next year?!
At some level I’m very glad I didn’t know about this before :)
hej,
oh…unfortunatly i hadn´t time for it…but i love to go there sometimes…and your photos showed me i must to go there…;)…so we will see…thanks for sharing…;)…cheers ines
To say I’m jealous doesn’t even cover how I’m feeling. You are one lucky duck!
The show is retail as well as wholesale? I didn’t know that. Time for a trip overseas…this time next year…
unglaublich. Ich habe mich auch mit der Dame von Carta Pura unterhalten und am Stand Brevi Manu hätte ich noch stundenlang bleiben können. So schön.
och da wäre ich auch gerne hingefahren. Sieht toll aus. Mist diese Messe ging völlig an mir vorüber :(
Thanks for all your comments! Soon there’ll be another interesting craft fair in Cologne: http://www.handarbeit-hobby.de/de/
@Elissa Yes, I think it’s retail only (but not sure how they check exactly) and you can’t buy anything there.
@smallcaps Das ist ja ein lustiger Zufall :) Ich fand die Halle allerdings auch insgesamt am eindrucksvollsten.
@Sandra :( Aber vielleicht ist die Handarbeitsmesse im März ja ein kleiner Trost…
For the first time in a long time I feel sorry, that I don’t live in Germany any more – but here in the US I was able to get a licence plat that reads “PAPRDAG” :-)
