National Stationery Week: meet the Paperstone team’s alter-egos
National Stationery Week kicks off on 11th May (today), and here at Paperstone we couldn’t resist celebrating in our own (slightly quirky) way.
We asked the team one very important question: “If you were a stationery product, what would you be?”
The answers didn’t disappoint (and neither did the AI generated images!)

Darren, Head of Merchandising – Bubble wrap
Not here to show off, but absolutely essential. Quietly and consistently supportive.
Jamie, Account Manager – Trusty ruler
A lover of accuracy and the details. If it needs measuring, checking, or refining, he’s already on it.


Max, Customer Service Manager – Stabilo highlighter
Bringing colour, positivity, and a little bit of brightness to every day. Impossible to miss – in the best way.
Tim, Merchandising – Calculator
Not always used, but when needed, delivers the right answer.


Danny, Accounts – Leitz Stapler
Bright, dependable, and holding everything together with colourful energy. Every team needs one.
Sarah, Head of Marketing – Smiley face bulldog clip
Small, friendly, and deceptively strong. Holding things together with determination (and a smile).


Jim, CEO – Electric multipurpose screwdriver
Just like the multipurpose screwdriver, DIY legend Jim is (mostly) useful in any situation turning his many skills to the task at hand.
John, Sales Director – Desk lamp
Like a desk lamp – a constant, dependable presence – bending without breaking and keen to adjust to what’s needed.


Soph, Sales Admin – Classic BIC Ballpoint pen
Dependable, flows smoothly, and is always ready for action. No fuss – just gets the job done.
Matt, New Business Manager – Dahle shredder
Premium performance, long run time, and absolutely ruthless with the competition. Enough said.


Peter, E-commerce Project Manager – Whiteboard
Full of ideas… some brilliant, some abandoned – but always ready for the next big thing.
Kels, Digital Marketing Assistant – Sticky note
Organised, adaptable, and making sure nothing important slips through the cracks.


Ed, Web Developer – Rolling ruler
He’s precise, flexible, and will be thinking one step ahead.
