Papyrus

I needed the weeding gift wrapped up, went in and asked if they can do that. He was friendly and said he would do it. I choose the paper and the ribbon. He wrapped up my gifts like it was his first time. The paper ended up being dirty and bow was freaking ugly. I mean I can do a better job that this. I went to the specialist wishing to get my friends weeding gift wrapped up nicely. So came home and redid his ugly masterpiece. I think stores like this should have experienced people for their services. Not worth of $ 26 for the wrapping with dirty paper!

This Papyrus is in the heart of the Third Street Promenade, next to Pinkberry. It has cards of course. But it also has unique gifts.
It’s fun to shop here. There’s so much to look at.

My parents have pretty much given me some really nice cards from this store over the years. But now I’m doing the selecting and I must say I’ve been quite disappointed with their selection. I’ve been to a few different locations, hoping that maybe that they’ll have that special card or set of cards that I had in mind. But alas, no luck. So, I go in again today to find a «Fathers Day» card and I was shocked at how all the cards w/​actual pictures were of all «caucasian men». This is 2014 and this is Los Angeles; how the heck does a store have no cards that represent the true demographics of L.A. And I might add to that; no cards in Spanish… maybe a card or 2 in French… Mon Dieu! Their cards are beautiful, if U like birds, butterflies, flowers, etc. But come on, there is a lot of beautiful art, architecture, and gardens, etc from all over the «World» that they could incorporate into their cards.
I will say that the staff has always been quite friendly but as someone who loves art and beautiful cards… they are lacking in the selection department.

Small-​ish Papyrus store, but so convenient to have one on 3^rd street.
If you’re not familiar, Papyrus sells upscale-​ish cards, gifts, and stationery. I’m a big fan of their line of items, but they also have a few other brands here — Crane, American Greetings, etc.
Service has always been fine.

This is a very cute store, with a lot of random gift ideas, but the greeting cards are a little pricey. I don’t understand how stores like this can stay in business in this economy, but they do sell Papyrus cards at your local pharmacy or grocery store, so the store could just be serving as a marketing tool.

Papyrus stores used to be my go to stores for unique cards etc… but with the Paper Source close by, I only came here looking for something specific, after the Paper Source was already closed… Still plenty of things to choose from, and a friendly employee, but this store is on the smaller side.

Great place for professional looking Thank You Cards, or the usual holiday cards (Birthdays, Christmas, etc) and life events (Graduation, Get Well, New Arrivals/​Baby). Its like a much classier version of Hallmark, but a bit more expensive. If you need help finding something, they are pretty helpful. You can also get custom made cards, invitations, etc. There’s usually a sale going on too which helps with the pricing.

If you’ve ever been inside a Papyrus store you pretty much know what you’re gonna get the second you walk through the door. Which was the case when I walked into this location last Saturday. I was in the area and stopped in to pick up a birthday card for later that day. I was a little surprised by how small this location was but nevertheless they had a decent selection and after about 15 minutes of browsing I found what I was looking for.
You’ll never find tasteless gag gifts or cards here. They can be a bit racy but they always keep it PG. The cards and stationary here tend to stand out more for quality than anything else, and quality IS something you’ll pay for. My fiancé’s family is fairly conservative so this is where I come for every major calendar holiday when sending out cards and I’d rather impress than offend.
Papyrus is always a safe bet

I came today because I literally need one invite for my graduation. I guess that is kind of depressing but everyone else who is coming is kind of an informal «hey, wanna come?» invite but I needed something fancy for my uncle and aunt. It was really annoying how I couldn’t just find nice singular invitations. They had a lot of various sets for buy one get one 50% off but they were priced at $ 20-​$ 28 for one set. One set was REALLY cute and I loved it — but of course it was the only one on the entire set of tables without a price tag Ugh :(
I eventually settled on one really nice card and I’m just going to kinda semi-​create the invite myself. It was hard to find staff to help, and when I did she was busy and had a line a few people deep so I was whatever about it.
Love the stuff in this place — I could spend a million dollars here, but I wish there was more staff.

I guess it all started when I was a little girl and my grandmother, for every birthday and Christmas, used to give me the most beautiful, hand-​stamped Cranes stationery and told me every lady must have stationery with her initials stamped in gold foil. It was civilized. It was girlish. And I’ve had to have a new set every year since, to the detriment of other expenses.
Seriously, I have a little bit of an addiction to this store. I can’t bring myself to write a note to someone without my pretty Papyrus-​bought stationery cards. You really can’t go wrong if you’re looking for a nice, personalized wedding or graduation gift. Or, if you just want to splurge on something completely anachronistic that Emily Post would applaud you for.

Ahh I love this place! Greeting cards galore! Cards for every occasion, and beautiful decorated and designed as well. Rather pricey, but it’s well worth it for special occasions. I’m now a fan!

This is a great place to get picture frames, stationary, note cards, Cards and really nice gifts. I have gotten great key chains. I am totally for note & letter writing and this is the place to stock up on your supplies.

Hands down — best place to get cards…

Papyrus has an eclectic selection of greeting cards, definitely not the run-​of-​the-​mill cards you would find at Hallmark or at the drugstores. It is located near the northwest corner of the 3^rd Street Promenade and Broadway but you can miss it if you’re not looking for the store.

On the Third Street Promenade, this stationery & card store has the best selection of boxed Holiday cards I’ve seen anywhere.
