I know I already mentioned that I was looking forward to the Stationery Show, so I thought since I’m there today, a stationery-related post was appropriate.

I actually didn’t see this product at the show, but at the Mrs. John L. Strong stationery section at Barney’s New York, and it’s also available at the Ms. John L. Strong Web site.

If you’re not familiar with this brand, it was founded in 1929 in New York City and has set the standard for hand-engraved stationery ever since.  Their clientele include American Presidents, royal families and prominent personalities and celebrities.

I just loved their Engaged Box, a set of 3 tablets (notepads) named: "Wedding-to-do", "Lucky in Love", and "Blissful Bride".  Isn’t this a great gift for a newly engaged bride?  Brides always need a notebook with them to jot down ideas and information they come across.  The set of 3 tablets in a wooden crate is $98.  You can order the set through the company’s Web site or visit one of their boutiques.  The flagship store is on Madison Avenue in New York, but they also have locations in Atlanta, Boston, Los Angeles, Palm Beach, Seattle, Washington, DC and Westport, CT.
