Shopping

Some great shopping around Richmond
This is my business, we produce Australia's best wedding and event invitations and ship around the globe. Paperlust was launched in 2014 to address the gap in the market we had identified: that people still wanted beautiful printed custom stationery for their events. We also knew that we were tired of seeing amazing creatives spend time chasing clients whilst people who wanted to buy quality stationery were struggling through hundreds of individual artists websites looking for great products. The talent was there. The demand was there. We just needed to create a platform that made it easy for the two to meet. To do it, we chose our suppliers, assembled a team, and built the marketplace. The result was Paperlust. Paperlust is Australia’s first print marketplace, founded in Cremorne, and now based out of Swan Street in Richmond. We list new designs for sale every single day, and our product range is constantly expanding. People across Australia and all around the world trust us to be part of their most important events. Our strategic vision is to take the best of Victorian and Australian design and print to the globe with our export sales already growing in the USA, Canada, Asia, Europe and of course New Zealand.
