Simplyput

I adore stationary so very much. It’s so pretty to look at, to gift, and to receive. It may not be as popular since technology has taken over our world but that means it’s just that much more intimate now.
The best thing? When I am not in town to grab something, I can purchase it online.
This is the spot to grab a great, thoughtful gift (aprons, monogrammed bags and trays, soaps, candles, etc). They have their own stationary and products along with other brands including:
— Bella Figura
— Smock Paper
— Printerette Press
— Crane
— Elum
— Books by Taschen
— Joe Cariati hand-​crafted decanters
and so much more.
My favorite line they carry are the Sapling Press cards. Hilarious! Last stop I purchased some just to frame in my home =)
So stop in here and fall in love with the ambiance, grab a gift (one for me, one for you), and enjoy this little shop.

A small but very adorable, squeaky-​clean feeling, stationary, and clever gift store.
They can custom-​make paper goods, so come here if you want a quirky or custom notecard or notepad, a set of notecards or invitations. Pick out a pretty print, a color, a font, a picture/​drawing/​photo and. Ink?
Then you read on their website, «We are graphic designers, painters and crafty types and who are obsessed with typography, paper and letterpress.»
It is enough to remind you of the business card banter of a particular Christian Bale movie.
But I’m just teasing. Visit if you’d like an original cute gift for man or woman. They’ve got manly beard soap, and fruity relaxing candles, recycled records turned into coasters, and cassette tape shaped scotch tape holders. Necklaces with moving parts (an envelope with a letter inside and a gun with a spinning barrel– no worries, no bullets) and those hair ties that don’t dent your hair!
Simplyput; a shop worthy of your time!

I love this spot in Westside. You’ll definitely find something schmancy for a gift, a funny greeting card (great selection), or even help with your whole wedding theme.
I was definitely partial to the selection of man-​friendly items — beer steins, cologne, and other toiletry items. They have tons of nicknack-​y items, too. You can definitely score a sweet gag gift here. However, note that it’s a bit pricey.
It’s a pretty small shop, which I like. You don’t feel overwhelmed by everything. It’s nice to walk around and check out the selection. We scored a sweet candle that we love. It makes our house smell like a garden of angel babies.

I cannot wait to come back here and spend all my money.
Simplyput is the perfect place to shop for those quirky individuals in your life. All things snarky, with a generous helping of hand-​crafted and creative gifts designed to delight and surprise.
They also do crazy cool things with paper, including all manner of printed cards and invitations. I could spend the whole day there!
It’s great for window shopping and is a wonderful stop along the way while waltzing through the shops in Westend.

Stopped in here with the fiancé to check out invitations. We discovered they usually only accept appointments, but they were free at the moment so took us in. They were really personable and helpful and had quite a few options to choose from. They really worked with us to understand what we like and how to stay in our price range.
The store also has tons of kitchy gifts and tchotchkies to peruse that are absolutely wonderful. I really like this place a lot.
