Cards
Robert Parisi of Parisi Events picked up his business cards less than 15 minutes ago, but we can't wait another second to share them!! These ultra-thick cards feature gold foil stamping on amethyst paper, duplexed to white 100% cotton paper with amethyst and black letterpress inks - completed with metallic gold edge paint. Rob chose a unique square shape for his business cards - and these will definitely leave an impression on everyone who receives one.
Parisi Events is a wedding, mitzvah, birthday, and party entertainment company from Jupiter. We love them because of the care they put into every event, and their dedication to making each client's event special and unique. If you're in need of a DJ, lighting, entertainment or planning services, definitely check them out at www.parisievents.com.

Shop Small & Shop Local
In the spirit of giving, we ask you all to please consider supporting small businesses when you do your holiday shopping this year.
Every dollar spent at a locally owned, independent business generates 2-3 times more economic activity in our communities than a dollar spent at a national chain. When you shop small, you pay someone's rent, put gas in their car and encourage their dream.
We feel so very lucky to have such incredible customers all year round, but especially during the holidays. We hope you will continue to shop local and shop small - it truly does make a difference in our local economy and in the lives of countless artisans, designers and community members.
Oh, hi there! We're Sarah and Shawn Gluchacki, the owners of The Windmill Paper Boutique. In celebration of Small Business Saturday tomorrow, we thought we'd share a little about ourselves.
Sarah has a BFA in graphic design and painting, and got her start working in a letterpress printing company in Syracuse, New York. Shawn has a background in math and physics and (shockingly) has basic social skills. We were our own first clients when we got married in August 2012, and then moved to Boca Raton to open up The Windmill. We'll travel pretty far for craft beer and great meals, we're serious coffee snobs, and we are known among our friends to send the greatest cards for every occasion (go figure!). We love paper, invitations, weddings, dogs, and a perfect beach day.
Thanks for joining us at downtown Boca Raton's Meet Me on the Promenade event - it was such a pleasure meeting so many South Florida paper lovers. Swing in the store anytime for more - we are right around the corner!
We are in LOVE with the brand new custom holiday designs we have in the shop! Letterpress, foil, photo printing, edge paint, envelope liners, and more... these are not your typical holiday cards. Swing by anytime to see all of the designs and options, or make an appointment to discuss your cards one-on-one. Plus, order Smock holiday cards by December 10th and they'll rush your order at no extra cost!
Father's Day is this Sunday, June 15th, and if you haven't picked up a card yet, we still have a great selection available! Here are just a few of the many cards we have in-store:
[Father's Day Saloon - Sugar Paper - $5.50]
[Father's Day Anchor - Smock - $5.00]
[Father's Day Cursing - Pink Orchid - $5.00]
Mother's Day is coming up fast on May 11th! Make this year's stand out from all the rest with a trendy new card from The Windmill. We have amazing letterpress & foil-stamped cards from the hottest paper lines, including Sugar Paper, Anemone Letterpress, Fig. 2, and Smock.
This screenprinted card from Fig. 2 is great for your hilariously non-tech-savvy mom.
At the point where yore starting to realize that everything your mom said growing up was right? This beautiful letterpressed card from Elum Designs is perfect for you.
And this letterpressed card from Sugar Paper is great for kids of any age to give.
We also have great gift ideas for paper-loving moms! Think gorgeous stationery sets, letterpressed coasters, note blocks, sticky cubes, journals, notebooks, and more.
Don't have time to stop in? Shop Mother's Day online here!
We are so honored to be featured on Downtown Boca this week! Here's a glimpse of the article:
Join the fight against bland, boring paper
Sarah Gluchacki is on a mission: to rid the world of cookie-cutter cards, notebooks and tacky giftwrap. Sound silly? There’s a serious side. At Gluchacki’s new Downtown Boca stationery shop, The Windmill Paper Boutique, she sources products only from small design and print shops and works hard to offer environmentally-friendly staples you wouldn’t normally find in chain card shops.
“I strive to support local vendors with eco-friendly practices,” says Gluchacki, who opened The Windmill after a stint as the lead graphic designer for a wedding invitation company. “I do my best to provide the freshest patterns, hues, and designs available – products that are not only useful, but beautiful as well.”
In her shop, every item is hand-crafted on natural papers made of materials like cotton and bamboo. Gluchacki specializes in custom invitations and stationery, but also carries a full stock of ready-to-buy paper goods like patterned notebooks, customized gift wrap and note cards.
“We’re all about utilizing bold patterns, bright colors, and classy, fun, cheeky designs from famous designers,” Gluchacki says. “These aren’t your typical convenience store cards.”
