question for those in Seattle

Which store in Seattle would have the largest selection of colors of sheets of crepe paper? I'm inclined to to head to Display and Costume, but I know there must be a card shop or art store with lots of crepe paper just waiting for me. Anyone know? My thanks!

  1. There's a new party store in Capital Hill on 15th that seems to have a ton of that kind of stuff...

  3. Maybe Packaging Specialties? I know they have tissue paper in every possible color you could imagine.

  6. I would be inclined to head to Display and Costume as well. Although does Champion Party Supply on 1st and Denny have stuff like that?

  7. depending on your location I'd try University Book Store (634-3400) at least giving them a call to see if they've got what you're looking for.

  8. I'll second Packaging Specialties. It's been a while since I've been in there, but I seem to recall last time I was there wanting to inspire myself to do something with crepe paper because there was such a fantabulous display.

  11. Thanks everybody! There are more places than I hoped, and I just passed Monkey Love Rubber Stamps last night and wondered if it was someplace I should take a look at.

  12. Paper Source, Univ Bookstore. Isn't there a Paper Source still by the Dome... er, Safeco Field?

    Monkey Love is awesome for stamps, scrapping, fancy papers for cards and scrapping, inks, embellishments, and so on.
