Mimio is a paper store next to the Blick in Pasadena. The owners import varies of selections from different countries. I like the pattern prints they imported, some of them are the ...

When my friends and I walked into Mimio, we thought we had literally died and gone to heaven. (We are all design geeks.) This place is a perfect resource for anyone who is into design or who just likes stationary. I personally love sending mail to friends and family and especially love things that are whimsical. I also like to make my own cards. Therefore, my favorite part of the store was the back wall, which is covered with racks of handmade paper. They are a little pricey but are absolutely beautiful.

This is a very sweet little store in the heart of Old Twon pasadena, right across the street from Lucky Baldwin's (which is the best pub in Pasadena) so the next time you're out having a pint, pop across and peek in. It has excellent cards and wrapping papers and all kinds of wonderful goodies as such, but what really makes the place stand out for me are the frequent workshops you can take in things liek bookmaking and paper making. Pop in and sign up!!!

This is what Mimio is all about - the artistry of paper. It's no ordinary stationery store. Everything in here is top of the line, unique and beautiful. If you're looking for oriental style papers, gift wrap, etc... this is the place. They do have their own line of stationery which I haven't seen anywhere else. Lovely store layout, everything is displayed very simply but beautiful at the same time. Also, they do offer creative workshops where you can learn all sorts of arts and crafts.
