Greetings from NYC!
As we take to the road to spread the Papaya love we are left with many moments of forced (but always appreciated) reflection on this past year. We launched our blog in August with the goal of sharing our culture with the world and receiving the feedback from our people. We've shared rooms from our office, new products, inspiration, a Creative Challenge, Discounts, and a ton of other fun stuff to tickle your fancy.
We would love to take the time to check-in with you to see how we did. Best posts? What would you like to see more of? Please let us know!!
-Sarah
There is always something to feed my visual appetite, a useful link, or just plain inspiration! I especially love the peek behind the curtain you give us...
Thank you!

LOVE any and all your work. It is so unique, you truly have a flair for the dramatic. Your cousin, Kathie G. introduced you to me. Then I saw Teesha loved your stuff and as they say, "...the rest is history." Placed my first order today...can't wait for it to arrive. Continued success. geo

Hi ya, Im not commenting about this particular post but i just wanted to say thank you. Ive written a short -almost review.. more of an excited blog post with pictures!
Im thanking you because I think this was the best customer service i ever received from any store. I just wanted to buy the Love Letters address book and as im in Ireland the postage was going to be 60 dollars and you lovely folks got me flat rate international shipping which was significantly cheaper!
I just want you to know how much i appreciated the flat rate shipping and all the trouble that you guys went to! Im really pleased at how quickly the item arrived too!
Im not too sure if you receive much customer feedback but this is a big thank you from a very happy lady :)
Thank you Papaya Art
Much Love
Claire Donovan

The blog is loveliness; I realize because Anahata is everywhere at once, it's difficult for her to maintain regular posts on her own blog. PaPaYa's blog is not a substitute, but certainly a complimentary balance and a fix.
Favorite posts:
PaPaYa's Menagerie
Trade Show Booth posts one & all
Inspiration Board (anything to do with that)
Studio Visits
PaPaYa Receiving (love glimpses INTO the 'business' and people of PaPaYa) ...
hands down favorite post, though:
The Omo People.
I also want to give you a shout out for personal email responses, and timely at that. THANK you for that kind of personal care.
You are invited and ever welcome to advertise, free of charge, with love, on my blog.

I loved participating in the gift wrap challenge. Anything that encourages us to be creative with your inspirational designs is welcome. I also loved seeing your offices and warehouse (chandeliers - go figure!) The product designs, the evolution of a product - i just adore your products and learning more about how they come to be!

I just recently found your website and this blog. I LOVE IT! In fact, I just received my first purchase from you all the other day, and can't wait to put it all to great use! I truly enjoy the "favorites" you have listed as well...great inspiration! I look forward to your new wrapping papers coming out. I am a mixed media mosaic artist, and love incorporating them into my work.
