Paper has always played such an important role in travel. Whether you are sending a postcard to a loved one back home or journaling throughout your adventures, a good notebook full of thoughts & a letterpress greeting card are essentials for your next big trip!

We are thrilled to share some of our top picks at Shindig. As you’re traveling through Northwest Arkansas, make sure to stop by for a cute postcard & a pretty notebook!

Letterpress USA map greeting card: I love this unique card because it comes with it’s own arrow sticker to mark your destination. Jot down a few memorable moments from your travels and send it to your family back home!

Observation notebook: I love writing down our favorite restaurants, attractions & more each evening on my trip. Tuck your maps, ticket stubs and more inside, too! It’s a great way to remember your trips and reference once you return.

Make Your Own Postcard!: This little pad of heavy-duty watercolor paper is blank on one side and includes a place for an address and stamp on the other side. Pull out your watercolors and doodle the ocean, the forest or the cityscape. Place a stamp on the back and mail it to your pen pal! It’s a great activity for kids, too.

Bucket List Notebook: What places are on your travel bucket list? Keep a notebook of your favorite spots & check them off as you visit!

As you prepare for your next trip, grab a few travel essentials from Shindig! And don’t forget to pack stamps!
