Smarty Sponsor: Paper Sassy
By Katie M
Smarties, I have a new passion and it’s called Paper Sassy. I could get in a lot of trouble in this store, and in fact, I’ve already dropped a pretty penny there and it was SO worth it! This trendsetter in fine stationary and gifts offers everything from personalized invitations, envelopes, and letterhead to planners, bags and signature items like dry-erasable magnetic bulletin boards known as Magulletins. If you have a design or color pattern in mind, Paper Sassy can match it, create it, or – chances are good – they already have it on-hand. The possibilities are endless and the prices are great. The best part: its owner, Devora Transou, is just as fun and cheerful as the designs she creates herself.
I’m betting my new passion will become yours as well. As luck would have it, Devora is offering 10% to all Triad Smarty Pants readers on your first visit. Just mention you read this blog today, and Paper Sassy will honor your discount.
The original Paper Sassy was based in Winston-Salem, and just last year, Devora moved her store and headquarters to the convenient Triad location of downtown Kernersville. You can’t miss it – just look for the polka dotted awning over the front door, striped flower pots filled with sassy pink flowers and Miss Paper Sassy herself, welcoming you on the front door. The store’s motto is “Come here with a smile, leave with a grin,” and it couldn’t be more fitting.
Artistic expression comes naturally to Devora, and oftentimes as therapy too. Several years ago when Devora was confined to bed because of illness, she began sketching Christmas cards for family and friends. People loved her work so much that it didn’t take long before her first business, Devora Designs, took off. Soon she was selling her designs to retailers nationwide. Then not too long after that, Devora moved her designs into the front door of 113 W. Mountain Street in Kernersville. Today, both Devora Designs and Paper Sassy are located at this address.
Devora and her team of “paper loving soldiers” have one mission: “To make your shopping experience a pure plum pleasure.” In a recent interview with Winston-Salem Monthly, Devora shared, “People connect with me, and they want to tell their friends that this is their store…My job is in sharing what I do.”
Devora and her products have also been featured in www.CelebrityBabies.com, and Giftware News Magazine, and Sensual Steps Shoe Salon in Chicago chose Devora to design their 2nd Year Anniversary Celebration featuring Carols Santana!
Now get this: Paper Sassy is holding its 2nd Annual Holiday Affair on Thursday, November 5 from 5 pm to 9 pm at its Kernersville store location. It will be an evening of shopping, prizes, desserts and joyful music. Devora is also offering $5 off – and for every friend you bring – you can get an additional $5 off. All you have to do is print off this blog with the coupon pictured below, and spend $25 or more to receive these discounts. (Note: The store will be closed on November 3 & 4 to prepare for this event, and will open on November 5 at 5 pm for the party). So simple! So sassy! See you there!
