This combination of versatility, thoughtful design, and superior quality ensures our items are not only visually appealing but also practical, adaptable, and built to stand the test of time. Do you visit any trade shows? Do you plan to visit any soon? Yes, we actively take part in trade shows, as they play a key role in connecting us with retailers, industry professionals, and customers. These events provide a valuable platform to showcase new and existing products, exchange ideas, and gain insight into emerging trends within the stationery and creative industries. Looking ahead, we’re planning to attend several trade shows in 2026, including the London Stationery Show. Attending these events allows us not only to present our product ranges, but also to engage directly with people who share a genuine passion for stationery, helping us build stronger relationships and continue to grow within the industry. If you’re planning to visit, our stand number is M416. What are you looking forward to most over the next year? I’m most looking forward to attending the London Stationery Show, as it will be my first time and an exciting milestone for me. The opportunity to represent a company I genuinely care about and believe in is something I find incredibly motivating, and it feels rewarding to be part of a brand I’m proud to stand behind. I’m also excited to meet other likeminded people within the stationery industry, from fellow professionals to customers who already love the products. Being able to hear their experiences, share enthusiasm, and see firsthand how our stationery fits into people’s everyday lives is something I’m really looking forward to. At the end of the day, although I work here, I truly love the products we put out, and that genuine appreciation makes the year ahead feel even more exciting. What new products can we expect from you in the future? We’ve got some great new things coming that we’re really excited about, especially in the creative and crafting space. One standout update is the refreshed Décopatch range, which now includes new foil paper options that add extra shine and texture to projects. These metallic and decorative foils give crafters even more ways to personalise and elevate their work, whether on papier‑mâché shapes or other surfaces - perfect for seasonal projects and making standout pieces Alongside these refreshed Décopatch papers, we’re also expanding our crafting offerings from Clairefontaine with new creative kits and discovery boxes. These kits bring together curated materials and inspiration in one box, making it easy for both beginners and experienced makers to explore different craft techniques - from paper crafting to mixed‑media projects - and discover new ways to be creative.
