Fun stationery gems
Some goodies I picked up at stationery fest in NY over the weekend
Attending the New York Stationery Fest is always a highlight for anyone passionate about writing tools, paper goods, and creative accessories. This year’s event, held in Brooklyn from July 30 to August 1, 2026, featured an incredible array of vendors showcasing everything from artisanal pens to unique journals and quirky paper clips. One of the most rewarding aspects of the fest is discovering those small, delightful stationery items that add personality to your desk setup and inspire daily creativity. I found some of my favorite gems among the crowd, including limited-edition notebooks with beautiful covers, handcrafted stickers, and eco-friendly writing supplies that stood out for their sustainable design. The festival not only celebrates the artistry behind stationery but also connects like-minded enthusiasts who share tips, ideas, and enthusiasm for collecting these little treasures. It’s a wonderful opportunity to support small businesses and independent artists as well. For anyone considering a visit next year or looking to shop online, my advice is to focus on quality and uniqueness rather than mass-produced items. Look for vendors offering handcrafted or locally made goods, and don’t hesitate to ask for customization options. Whether you’re an avid stationery addict or just beginning your collection, the New York Stationery Fest offers something special that can brighten your everyday writing and planning habits. Hashtags like #stationeryaddict, #stationeryfinds, and #newyork capture the vibrant energy and community of the fest, perfect for following the latest trends and inspiration on social media. Overall, the event’s festive atmosphere and variety of booths create an enriching experience that keeps me coming back year after year.
