My favourite shop Paperchase.
I have always had this love of stationery. I used to love the start of a new school year as you got your new pencilcase, pens and pencils. As I've got older it has been the lure of notebooks and my favourite shop has them in abundance. This is my latest.
In here I keep my lists of everything, it also has lovely pockets to put those odd bits of paper you get in. I have lists of things I have to do, things I want to do, lovely quotes, things to see, things to read, things to watch it goes on and on.
The next best thing in Paperchase are the stickers.
I have even got a tin especially for the stickers from there. Again this goes back to childhood, I used to collect stickers then 10p for a little square of stickers off a roll. They were great. Now it is a £1 for a pack of them from Paperchase.
Not only do I have a love of this shop but Little Miss does to. She saves her pocket money up and gets herself notebooks, pens and stickers.
We all know and love this shop but when you visit the one a Tottenham Court Road London give yourself a couple of hours. Three floors of Paperchase goodies to browse and lust after, and a coffee shop to sit and relax in. Pure shopping heaven.
Thank you for taking time to visit and read my blog.
And next is Random Reflections.
Thank you I Speak Melsh for making this all possible. Please check out Mel's blog for all of the others taking part.

OMG 3 floors - I love Paperchase but didn't know about the Tottenham court rd one - next time I'm in Londond !!
I agree that a trip to Paperchase can end up with you spending hours in there! We don't have one nearby but I love the one in Cambridge, so many fun things in there.
Perfect Post for the letter P! Great choice of shop, too - ah, the lovely Paperchase! I think I might just be due a visit :-) Thanks so much for taking part in my hop xx
I love Paperchase too and have several of their notebooks and I love the stickers I use them on my layouts. I would love to visit the Tottenham Court Road one will have to see if that is possible. sound fantastic.
Oh I was in Paperchase in Cribbs Causeway Bristol over the weekend, I just loved it! I went for a look and came out with a bag full of essentials!! What a clever post for P.
Oh I wish I had access to a Paperchase! I love stationary - I blame my love of it as a little girl for my excessive paperstash now! Love your post and your little bucket for your stickers! Jen x
Perfect post! Paperchase in London sounds divine!! My DD is also a huge fan! xxx
Sounds like a wonderful store.
Paperchase is a favourite place to visit with my daughter too:)

Ooh, yes! My daughter and I had to be prised out of Paperchase yesterday. We still can't quite believe they have actually opened in our town :) A perfect P indeed.
I'm a huge fan of all things paper. There's a store here in the US called Paper Source that might be similar. Sadly none of them are any where close to where I live!
I love stationery shops too. That notebook is so pretty.
The shop sounds great. What a pretty notebook!
I wish we had a paper chase store - it sounds lovely!
Sounds like a pretty popular place - would love to have a few hours to browse all three stories! I personally believe you can never have too many journals or pens!
You made me want to go shopping but we don't have any paperchases here :(
I love to spend time in Paperchase, just stroking all the lovely pads & wrapping paper. I'm a list person, so i get through an awful lot of notebooks & if you've gotta have 'em they may as well be pretty ones!!
I miss Paperchase - they don't seem to have it in my neck of the woods, but I used to love browsing there when I lived in London. Thanks for bringing back happy memories of my youth!
Oh how I wish we had shops like this in Australia!
Sounds like the perfect place to spend a Saturday! Lovely post :)
I wish I lived near Paperchase so I can visit it - it sounds awesome! Yay for P!
Love Paperchase myself
I love Paperchase too! Our big store has closed :( Gr8 poSt!
THREE floors of Paperchase! That could be as good as visiting a Scrapbook Store

3 floors of paperchase!!!??? Wow, I know where I am heading on my day off (Thursday)...and how convienient that I will have just been paid. Thanks for the heads up.
Pretty, pretty, pretty! :)
No good paper/stationary stores to be found in Beijing. In fact, no good quality paper of ANY kind. But the up side? I save my money!
A perfect 'P'post.Perfect Paperchase! Wish there was one near us. Am just catching up as I've been away since the hop
I'm going to echo the Three Floors ?!?! I do love Paperchase - I'm a sucker for diaries and postcards. Hmmm.
Sorry for the late comment, by the way. I just couldn't manage to get round everyone at the weekend x
