DualEdgeRipper.com

OK GROSS, the closeup of the hands on that website are out of this world BUT it is the product i was thinking of:

And, you will actually have to tear the sheets, but at least it makes it easier.

lori, you can also go to the dick blick art store off of clybourn and north ave... they sell several different brands of paper with deckled edges so you dont have to tear them.

You may be able to purchase a deckle edged paper cutter - it won't be truly torn, but it will look as though it is.

 

Alternatively, you can buy deckle edged paper in the size you need.

OH RIGHT ON! I've never even seen this! pre-torn paper would rock for those who need to do a million sheets!

i just bought this deckle edge paper yesterday from the blick store because it matches my invitation paper from white aisle. its made by fabriano medioevalis.

Fabriano Medioevalis Stationery - BLICK art materials

the store doesnt have every single size, but a decent selection. if you order from the website, the shipping is relatively quick. they have more sizes on the web too. if you want to buy them from there, let me know, i can meet you over there or give you my discount card number for a web order (since im a college prof i get 10% off).

and sorry my bad, its off north & clybourn but the address is actually on kingsbury -- right by the old navy. the other stores that carry it are located at:
42 S. State St (dick blick)
225 W. Chicago Ave (this is not actually a dick blick store, its the pearl paint store across the street frm papersource)
332 S Michigan Ave (Utrecht art store near the school of the Art Institute)

you should ask for either fabriano medioevalis or arturo fine stationery products, its the same thing but goes by two dif names. most places carry the white and the ivory.

Thanks Maura, I know exactly where the stores are, next to Design within Reach. yep. thanks so much. I can't wait to get these last minute details done!! I'll see what they have and email you. Thanks again.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
