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…

BAMBOO ME!
I keep notes everywhere…I have a running to-do list on my planner (I’m a teacher), I worship sticky notes, I save scrape pieces of paper for notes, I use the “notepad” feature in my cell phone when I don’t have access to a pen and paper…just to name a few!!
If I don’t write it down, it never happened!

Niki says

Rachael Geiger says
BAMBOO ME!!!
I keep notes everywhere, but most importantly, for work. I keep a log book just in reach of my right hand at all times – anytime I e-mail, talk to, or telephone someone I write down their name and some short reason for contact in order to jog my memory later. In a job where the substantiation for your position is in your contacts, it’s vitally important for me to keep good notes! If they’re good looking notes, that a super plus!!!
Emily (The Culinary Couple) says
BAMBOO ME! I use physical stickies at my desk and virtual stickies on my phone.
Grace says
Bamboo me!
I’m definitely a pad on my desk sort.
Jillian Shivers says
I need you to BAMBOO ME! Well, maybe not me but definitely my husband. You want to know how he keeps notes? Post-its. Post-its all over EVERYTHING. Each one may only have one or two points on it. So, really, I need you to bamboo HIM! And I guess me, too, since it will help my sanity. ;)
Wendy @ A Southern Accent says
Bamboo me! Love these! I use stickes and stickes everywhere!
Shannon says
Bamboo Me!!
I am a chronic list/note writer so I have a magnetic list on my fridge, mini to do lists for in my purse and near the phone, and a notebook kept on my nightstand for random things to remember. And I love having cute looking notes and lists!
Alina says
BAMBOO ME!!!
Margaret D says

I keep note pads all over. At my desk, in my purse, in the car, in my bedroom, in the kitchen, in the TV room and even in the bathroom. You never know when you need to jot something down.
Cameron says
BAMBOO ME!

I am usually the sticky-note queen…the wall by my desk is usually covered with them! However, I’m trying to switch to a more portable planner method.
Sarah says
BAMBOO ME!
My desk is covered with post-it notes!
Beylah says
Bamboo me! I keep notes, scraps of paper, pads, stickies, etc. everywhere. Of course my desk at my office is covered with random pieces of paper and sticky-note reminders, but you’ll find that my house, purse and car are no different! I do like keeping things organized in spreadsheets and tasks through my email as well… but it just isn’t quite the same as a bright pink post-it yelling at you to follow-up on something already. That said, this giveaway is perfect for me! :)
Ryan says
BAMBOO ME!
I make notes everywhere
Rachelle R. says
Bamboo Me!!! Please! I keep notes in every way possible.Paper and pen is the preferred method. I have a decorative pad in my purse, at my desk, at the computer I have fancy journals to document notes and lists. I do have back-up on my cell with the notepad feature.
sara r says
BAMBOO ME!!

Rebecca W. says
Bamboo Me!
I’m a fanatical note taker. I can barely remember the first digit of a phone number by the time someone gets to the last one, so I have post-its *everywhere*. I buy those babies by the dozen. I even keep a small notebook in my purse for note taking on the go. It’s been an absolute lifesaver.
Steve J says
bamboo me… I’m not a big note taker. I usually jot stuff on the closest envelope or even my hand. Drives my wife nuts. She would love it if I surprised her with a couple of fancy notebooks for her endless list making.

Jennifer H. says
bamboo me!
Jessalyn E says
BAMBOO ME…
…I’m a notebook girl. I keep a small journal and pen in my purse for grocery lists, sketches, ideas, etc. At work I have a small notebook for daily tasks and to-do lists, and another small notebook for taking notes at meetings. I try to only use post-its for emergencies.
Lynette says
Bamboo Me!
I use the backs of envelopes and am forever losing them.
Alex F says
BAMBOO ME…
I use the “tasks” function on gmail which creates a sort of digital post-it at the bottom of my email screen. Very convenient and difficult to ignore my notes.
marissa says
BAMBOO ME
Alene Horney says
BAMBOO ME!
I LOVE jotting down notes, so currently I have a desk full of colorful sticky notes. They are definitely not as cute as the ones being given away though! How fun!
amy says

Nicole says
Bamboo Me!!
Sticky notes, scratch paper, and a notebook. I have lists and random thoughts everywhere! Awful, I know, but it’s the only way to keep myself sane.
