Who knew bamboo could be so beautiful? Well actually, the people behind Smock Paper did. They also know that bamboo is one of the most earth-friendly sources of paper out there. By relying on it, along with other recycled materials, and by incorporating other green practices into their shop, Smock Paper is truly a wonderfully sustainable operational located right here in the good ol’ US of A. Oh, and of course they make very pretty things.
You may have already heard of Smock Paper from our monthly sponsor shout outs, and if so you probably remember them for their stunning letterpress greeting cards, party and wedding invites, and the like. Well they’re here this week to give one of you a sweet $100 shopping spree while introducing some new products to amp up your note-taking, gift-giving, and memo-jotting adventures.
Just like all of their other products, these colorful items come with an eco-tastic spin. Like the memo pad above whose letterpressed bamboo cover protects 90 sheets of 100% post-consumer recycled paper. Or the cube of 700 sticky notes below that also comes from recycled paper.
While those items could dress up your office nicely, they’ve also got graphic beauties like double-sided wrapping paper, gift bags and even gift boxes that all boast punchy designs on recycled materials that would certainly dress up your next gift or look great in your home office.
Now let’s get on to how you can enter to win:
- PRIZE: $100 towards anything on Smock Paper’s website
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “BAMBOO ME” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …since Smock makes items to help you keep notes, why not share your current note-keeping habit with us. Do you keep a pad on your desk to jot down phone numbers or random thoughts? Do you keep some scrap paper in your purse just in case? Or are you high tech and rely on a voice recorder or phone app to help you remember stuff?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, September 1st at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The United States AND Canada!
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck…

Linda says
BAMBOO ME!
I use a notepad and make lists, which I inevitably lose–ergo, the situation is under review!
Linda Mc. says
BAMBOO ME! I only keep lists for two reasons 1) task list at the office and 2) packing lists for trips. I cross each thing off when it’s completed/packed, which makes me feel acchomplished!

Brittany says
BAMBOO ME
I always have post-it notes and paper pads on my desk, but its all about electronics when I’m on the go!
Katherine says
BAMBOO ME!
I print off coupons from online a lot and they usually print one to a page so I rip off the coupon and then write notes on the rest of the paper. I use the paper until its really full, usually with days or weeks worth of notes on one.
Jennifer says
BAMBOO ME…
I make sure I have a pen/paper in my car at all times.
Also, I use my phone to keep important notes/dates/etc.
However, I’m a sucker for beautiful paper. lol

Ella says
BAMBOO ME!
I still use notepads for everything- phone messages at work, jotting notes in meetings, making my grocery list, reminders of things to do. I don’t know where I’d be without them!
Candace says
Bamboo me!
I would love to be more paperless… but I can’t seem to do it! I have a variety of size pads of paper for notes- everything from office voicemails, to to-do lists, to grocery/shopping lists, to notes to myself. EVERYTHING!
Corie says
BAMBOO ME!
I keep notes wherever they come to me – scrap paper on my desk, a notepad in my purse, iphone app ect. I round up all my notes after a few days and combine them into one big shopping/to do list.

Bamboo me! I keep several note pads on my desk, and they all have different to do lists on them…
linde says
Bamboo Me!! wow, this stuff looks great. hope i am the LUCKY winner:)
Jemma says
BAMBOO ME
I write to do lists for everything – it’s the only way I can clear my mind of all the “want to do” tasks, and prioritize the “need to do”. I find writing on paper is way better than the electronic alternatives. There is something so satisfying to crossing out a completed task!
PatC says
Bamboo Me!
For daily items, like my shopping list,I use the blank side of used paper (recycling!) For DIY to-do lists and the like, I use an excel spreadsheet to keep a running list.
Love the cards on this site…perfect for my daughter’s wedding thank you notes!
Megan D says
Bamboo me!

Megan B says
“BAMBOO ME”

Jessalyn says
Bamboo Me!
I go back and forth between scrap sheets of paper in my purse and keeping a notebook and jotting down notes as I go. It would be nice to have something pretty to write on.
Jen H. says
BAMBOO ME!
My mom throws in magnetic grocery list notepads with about every gift-giving occasion, so I’m always prepared to jot down a note when in the vicinity of my fridge.
Jen @ The Decor Scene says
BAMBOO ME!!!! Gorgeous designs.
Notepaper or post-it’s work for me.
Kari says
Bamboo me!!
Psh, take notes?! Not! I do, however, adore all things paper. If I were more organized I’d keep a notebook, but unfortunately said notebook would likely get lost within a week.
Kaylan says
I keep post-its and to do lists everywhere. When I am busy or on the go, I usually e-mail myself from my phone then I can put it on the “master list” when I get home:)
Lisa O. says
Bamboo me!

Katherine says
Bamboo me!
I use sticky notes, my “notes” i-phone app, empty envelopes, whatever I can get my hands on! If I don’t write it down, I’m bound to forget it.

BAMBOO ME! i keep a notepad on my desk for work and I keep track of my personal lists in my blackberry.
Melissa says
You must BAMBOO ME over some of those adorable cards. Right now I use any paper lying around to jot down ideas, things to buy, and my to do list. I have yet to organize that part of my life. I love how ecofriendly this store is as well!
Lee Ann says
Bamboo Me!
In an effort to be more “green” and stop wasting paper, I make lists on my BlackBerry. The lists are always with me and I can edit them without using extra pieces of paper. It also keeps my purse much more organized. It used to look like a paper bomb exploded in there!
Julie says
BAMBOO ME!
I admittedly hoard post-it notes at work without shame.:) When a shipment of office supplies arrives at our office I’m usually the first to ransack the post-it box. Pink, yellow, green, blue bring ’em on!
