People ask me all the time how they can start a business like mine. I've put off answering because there's no exact right or wrong answer. But I truly do want to help however I can, so without further ado, here's my step-by-step guide to starting a stationery business. This is exactly what I would do if I was starting from scratch now. Timing is everything, so I can't say for sure whether this model will work now in 2024. But based on everything I've learned over the last 9 years, this is what I think would be the most direct and cost-effective way to get into the stationery store game!

If you're new here - welcome! I started my business on my 18th birthday selling paintings I made in my free time. I continued to run and grow it throughout college and graduate school, and into law school at Duke University. Now I'm running the business full time, law degree in hand, and I wouldn't have it any other way! I sell my art on my website, wholesale on Faire.com and I license my work to be sold in stores including Home Goods, Marshalls, At Home, and World Market.
