good things take a little longer

In a world of texts, DMs and instant everything, there's something special about finding a card in the mailbox.

A few words, a hand written note, a moment that says I was thinking about you.

Cards and paper goods for the moments worth making time for.

thoughtful doesn't have to mean serious

Some moments call for heartfelt words.

Some call for a terrible pun.

And some call for telling your best friend they're old as shit.

Whatever you're trying to say, say it like you mean it.

made with a little more thought

Every Stillbay design starts with an original hand-drawn illustration by Hilary, inspired by the people, places, humour and little moments that make life good.

We work with Canadian printers to turn those drawings into paper goods we're proud to send out into the world.

Designed in Nova Scotia, made to be shared.
