<h2>Stationery bestsellers & emerging trends</h2>
Eco-conscious packaging and sustainable stationery As sustainability becomes a growing priority for consumers, many of the independent brands on CREOATE are leading the charge with eco-friendly packaging and responsibly sourced materials. From recycled paper notebooks to biodegradable greeting cards and soy-based inks, there's no shortage of planet-friendly options. Adding sustainable stationery to your store’s range can also create a positive brand perception and attract environmentally conscious shoppers.
Curated stationery bundles Another rising trend among shoppers is gift-ready stationery bundles. These curated sets may include a matching notebook, washi tape, pens, and stickers — making them great for gifting and ideal for back-to-school or office organization promotions. Stationery bundles also encourage higher order values, especially when presented attractively in-store or online.
When looking to bulk buy stationery for your store, it’s always helpful to understand what’s trending, and what’s popular at different times of the year. Here’s our take:
<h3>Planners & diaries: new year essentials</h3>
There’s something about turning the first crisp page of a notebook that gets the new year off to a great start. Stock up on dated journals and <a href="https://www.creoate.com/product-category/planners-organisers">planners</a> from our stationery wholesalers in time for the festive and early January peak.
<h3>Bullet journals remain on-trend</h3>
We’ve written a <a href="http://blog.creoate.com/blog/a-beginners-guide-to-bullet-journals">beginners’ guide to bullet journals</a> which documented how this type of journal became so popular, and how to ‘bullet journal’. While some of the hype has since died down, these are still a really popular style.
<h3>Greeting cards: a great stationery starter</h3>
It’s estimated that 811 million greeting cards are bought in the UK each year; that’s around 12 per person. <a href="https://www.creoate.com/product-category/greeting-cards">Greeting cards</a> are also typically fairly high margin, with many cards on CREOATE having a margin of 60% or more.
And what you’ll often find is that people will pop into your store for a greeting card, and end up leaving with one (or several!) things they didn’t even know they needed. And while you can tap into seasonal events and specific occasions, there are also plenty of lovely ‘neutral’ options if you just want to keep it to a few options. Who can resist a colourful
<h3>Washi tape: the ideal impulse purchase</h3>
Who can resist a colourful and highly appealing reel of washi tape? They make the perfect little countertop or tabletop display, and are perfect for eco-conscious shoppers.
<h3>Bold colour</h3>
We’ve noticed bold colours dominating stationery designs, and underpinning the most impactful stationery displays in store. When it comes to colour and stationery, it seems more is more!

While not every brand offers this, you can reach out directly through the platform to inquire. Sampling products first can help you assess paper quality, print finish, and overall packaging."

 "@type": "Answer",
 "text": "Clever merchandising can really bring your stationery stock to life, and brighten up your whole store. Let customers leaf through the premium paper of your journals by displaying them on a table, and leaving one unwrapped to ‘sample’.

 "@type": "Answer",
 "text": "Running in-store promotions or seasonal displays is a great way to increase visibility and interest. Try themed sections—such as “Back-to-School,” “Self-Care Journaling,” or “Cards That Make You Laugh”—to make products feel more purposeful and curated. Social media also plays a role; many stationery brands have visually appealing designs that photograph well and are highly shareable."
 }

 "@type": "Question",
 "name": "How profitable is stationery as a category?",
 "acceptedAnswer": {
 "@type": "Answer",
 "text": "As we mentioned above, a lot of stationery products are high margin (60%+), and many stationery products are evergreen rather than seasonal, so you don’t have to worry about things becoming out of date. Even seasonal stock like wholesale Christmas cards can be brought out year after year if they’re kept carefully, making stationery a generally simple and profitable category to stock.
The exception here is dated diaries, journals, and calendars. Sales for these will peak between November and early January, before drastically dropping off, and leaving stock that’s hard to shift. So it’s important to plan more carefully when buying these types of items wholesale, as well as giving them pride of place for those key buying months, and going for a higher margin here where possible."

I think it's very difficult to find a sympathy card which says the right things at a time of loss. I hope this does.

My husband's Mum passed away suddenly and unexpectedly, and it was a huge shock that left the big hole I'd heard people talking about.

We received lots of touching bereavement and funeral cards but it was clear that people didn't know what to say. I wanted to write a sympathy card to help with that feeling of being lost in the loss, and which was different from everything else. So I wrote this one.

My Mother-in-Law would be hugely embarrassed to know there's a card dedicated to her, but I think deep down she'd be quietly proud.

The card is 7 x 5 and blank inside, printed onto 300gsm uncoated board and supplied naked with an envelope or cello wrapped at 5p extra.
