I’m so excited that Sweetbeets boxed note cards are now carried at Pistachio! The location on Yonge Street in Toronto opened yesterday and you can read more about the new chain of eco-chic gift boutiques here. Can you tell that I love the vibrant green of Pistachio’s storefront? It looks like the same shade of ink I’ve chosen for one of my boxed notes designs!

I love how these Sweetbeets cards are displayed at O! baby baby, a children’s boutique in Berkeley that specializes in eco-friendly products that are good for your baby. The O! is for organic! You can find more photos of the shop on Flickr. There’s a brand new store blog too!

While at the National Stationery Show I had the pleasure of meeting Marichelle of Heart Handmade. I confess that I had not heard of this blog before but after checking it out I quickly subscribed to the RSS feed and it’s one I always check first in my Google Reader when there’s a new post. She has a regular column called “Retail Therapy” where she interviews shop owners and “finds out what really goes on behind the register”. Today Stem, a new Sweetbeets retailer, was featured.
