I love stationery. There, I’ve said it! At Note & Wish, their mission is to inspire creativity through the art of journaling, letter writing, and other analogue pursuits. My kind of people! So it’s not a surprise that I love what they sell!
Note & Wish was founded by sisters, lifelong best friends and stationery lovers, Rebecca and Jessica. They turned their passion into reality in 2017, launching Note & Wish with their very first washi tape designs, and they’ve been going strong ever since. The sisters lovingly hand draw and design everything found at Note & Wish, and take inspiration from the British countryside, literature, and their travels. Their stock includes washi tape, wax seal stamps and accessories, rubber stamps, greeting cards, sticker sheets, envelopes, and more.
I have ordered from Note & Wish previously, but last month, after dithering and missing their April Letter to You Patreon, I decided to order the matching Forget Me Not Stationery Box instead.
The Forget Me Note Stationery Box is inspired by Rebecca & Jessica’s mum’s Chinese blue and white teapot saved for special occasions and the Forget-Me-Nots that grew in their garden every spring. It includes: 1 ‘Forget Me Not’ sealing stamp with a decorative brass handle & a stick of dark blue sealing wax in a presentation box, 4 new Note & Wish washi tapes and a box of vintage label stickers. There is also an option to add on a “Ribbon Flower” sealing stamp if you wish. There is a 25% saving if you purchase the stationery box compared to buying the items separately.
I just love this stationery box, especially the washi tape! It’s been a while since I used my wax seal stamps, so I’m hoping to get back into using them, especially as this one is so beautiful.
I recently joined Note & Wish’s Journalling and Letter Writing Patreon Community and wish I’d joined sooner! I currently have their Letter to You (UK) membership which at £9.50 per month includes: a letter from Note & Wish, 4 sheets of stickers, voting privileges (to help plan & design their next collections), sharing pages of their journals, occasional extra goodies such as washi samples, 24-hour early access to released plus a discount code, plus everything from their Dear Diary tier (one page monthly printable, design inspirations, personal updates, behind the scenes and a digital printable).
The first month of my membership (May 2025), I received this wonderful “Summer Meadow” set of stickers. They will add the perfect touch to the letters I’ll be sending to penpals this summer! I have already received June’s letter & stickers, and can’t wait to see what else comes throughout the year.
The illustrations & designs by Note & Wish are just beautiful, and I already have my eye on a few other things in the shop!
Note & Wish ships worldwide, but they also have stockists in various countries for those who prefer to order closer to home.
Note & Wish – Perfect for any stationery lover!

This post is the twenty-fifth edition of my Supporting Small Businesses series. In today’s economic climate, I think it is even more important to continue to support small businesses.
It is exemplary to support small businesses, more important than ever in the face of globalization and homogenization. It would also be nice if we could revive the practice of sending thank you notes and the like, real ones, hand-written and personal. There is still joy in receiving real mail.
There’s nothing quite like sending & receiving personal, hand-written mail. I love writing letters and cards.
This is all just wonderful and I hope to be a recipient of some of your correspondence featuring the stickers and washi tape! I love sealing wax, too, but it doesn’t always make an overseas trip well. (you make me want to get mine out again!)
I need to check out their goodies. Though I don’t really NEED anything and you know how easily tempted I am!
Your latest letter arrived the other day, and yes, I plan on using some of the stickers and washi tape on my reply!
…Nikki, you are fabulous holdout from classy times!
In a world that’s come to rely heavily on text messages and the like, it’s wonderful to see people taking the time to make personal connections with others, Nikki!
So cute!
These are all lovely Nikki.
I absolutely LOVE that you’re promoting small businesses like this, Nikki, but this one in particular is right up my alley. When I was much younger, I often perused the stationery sections at certain stores and almost always came away having purchased a treasure. I especially loved waxed seals!
Oh how wonderful. It’s a lovely to hear how a passion turns into a business, just as long as running a business these days does not detract from the passion of their work.
These look lovely and if you are writing letters often, you have the opportunity to use the items.
What lovely products for those who journal or write letters. I particularly like the Summer Meadow stickers, aren’t they pretty.
Thank you for highlighting this lovely small business. I have just been over to visit via your link and the work of these talented ladies is beautiful. I shall bare them in mind when I want pretty stationary.
I used to love stationery and wrote letters often when I was younger. Today’s arthritis doesn’t encourage it and I usually phone instead. Lovely shop!
These are so lovely and such high quality. I totally get it that you support this business and it is important that we keep these small business. And who does not want to get a nice decorated letter in the mail, or a nice card. I still write with fountain pens and I have different colours ink. What a wonderful supporting post and I hope they keep getting more people that buy from them.
Have a wonderful day.
I can see why you like this place! Their products are beautiful. Wonderful clean and pretty graphics!
Way to go ~ supporting small businesses ~ this one is one elegant business ~ awesome for sure ~ thanks,
Wishing you good health, laughter and love in your days ~

Wow, these are absolutely delightful Nikki! xxx
Those are gorgeous. I think we might already have guessed that you loved stationery so your confession was unnecessary !
The stationary looks amazing.
It’s all very beautiful, Nikki, and if anyone could still read my handwriting I’d be tempted. I’ve never even heard of washi tape- presume it’s stuck on as a trim? Forget-me-not is lovely xx
So beautiful.
