ENCINITAS, CA — To the delight of stationery and unique gift lovers, Paper Source has now unveiled its latest store in the lively Encinitas Ranch Town Center in San Diego County. With this highly anticipated location at 1040 N El Camino Real Drive opening its doors on Wednesday, it marks the brand’s exciting return to San Diego’s North County. Once again, Paper Source is ready to serve a community that values creativity and thoughtful gifting.
The decision to open in Encinitas, in fact, comes as a welcomed comeback for Paper Source, especially since the closure of its Carlsbad location in February 2022. “We are thrilled to reconnect with our loyal customers in this beautiful seaside town,” said Marge Keller, regional manager for Paper Source. “This new location has already seen visitors who expressed how eagerly they’ve awaited our return to the area.”
A Unique Collaboration with Barnes & Noble
This Encinitas opening is particularly unique as it leverages a collaborative partnership with Barnes & Noble, located in the same shopping center. This strategic pairing creates a one-stop destination for those who value artful products, specialty stationery, and exceptional gifts. As Halle Wagner, spokesperson for Paper Source, noted, “The partnership with Barnes & Noble will be an extraordinary experience, offering our shared customers the benefit of two unique shopping experiences in one convenient location.”
An Unmatched Selection and Membership Program
At this new location, Paper Source offers its signature range of premium paper, stationery, unique gifts, and curated party supplies for every season and occasion. Shoppers can explore everything from hand-selected cards and gift wrap to creative crafting supplies that inspire and elevate everyday moments. Additionally, Paper Source offers a dual membership program that seamlessly integrates with Barnes & Noble’s membership, allowing rewards to be earned and redeemed at both Paper Source and Barnes & Noble locations, as well as BN.com. This initiative enhances the value for devoted customers who can now enjoy the perks of both brands under a single membership.
Grand Opening Event: Crafting, Community, and More
The new store will be open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sundays. To celebrate its arrival, Paper Source is hosting a grand opening event this Saturday, promising a day filled with crafts, activities, and delightful surprises for all attendees. This celebration invites the community to experience the artistry, warmth, and passion that make Paper Source an iconic brand.
The Encinitas store joins Paper Source’s La Jolla location, located at 8843 Villa La Jolla Drive, Suite 204, in serving the San Diego area. With this expansion, Paper Source is reaffirming its dedication to fostering creativity and making heartfelt moments memorable through the art of stationery and gifting.
