Flow magazine: an ode to creativity and paper

I’ve got to tell you guys about this amazing magazine for paper lovers called flow.  It’s from Amsterdam and has been around for years, but only recently in an international edition.  It is also about positive psychology, imperfection, and life’s little pleasures… helping readers reflect on their happily busy lives.  In the Netherlands, they even publish a holiday edition, calendars and stationery, and even special issues on topics such as mindfulness.  I mean really, they may as well have named the magazine, “You hoo! This is for you, Naomi!”

There’s even an entire edition without any words at all… just beautiful paper in various forms.

And stickers.  And post-it notes.

And post cards.  And book tags.

And paper kits.  And tags.  And calendars.  And wrapping paper.  And labels.  And envelopes.  All beautifully decorated.  OMG!!!

Each issue is chock full of inspirational quotations.

And short segments with recommendations of books to linger over, products that inspire, etc.

And stories about artists and creativity.  And interviews with artists of all ilk.  And DIY projects, recipes, and insightful articles.

You get the idea.  It’s a little piece of happy just for you.  Isn’t it great that there’s something like this in the world?

Oh, and they’re on Pinterest.  Eek!
