I love this Paper Source. It is a good size with great selection. Not overwhelming like some the other stores. I honestly go there a lot just to look at everything and for a little inspiration.
Some of the paper can be a bit pricey. I personally like to buy the prepackaged paper with prints on them. It is much more cost effective for me personally. They have really cute little gifts and date books that I adore.
The staff I am neutral about. Never have had a bad interaction. Seem friendly.
I would advise going right to the stamp section in back. If not to buy, to just look. There is some really fun stuff.

Definitely top 5 favorite shops in Brookline and top paper shop anywhere.
It may be pricey, but the selection and quality and service cannot be beat.
I always come out inspired to do & make more more more !
It's probably a good thing that Paper Source has not opened in Philly, or I would seriously go beserk.

If you can snag something on sale, pounce on it. Otherwise, PASS!
-super overpriced
-really cool window displays (probably why they mark the prices up so high)
-not-too-helpful staff
-occasionally, I'll find something REALLY cool, like an awesome coloring book yes, I still color-it's fun and I like embracing my inner child!
Need a greeting card? go to CVS!

Not cheap, but I have the coolest business cards on the block, and I make the best cards for friends.
I also got ribbon here to make my roomsies a headband to match a dress for a wedding, and they have sweet birthday gifts for the crafty and silly
Go, its fun, but be prepared to spend $$$
