  • DELIGHT A shop you love to pop into and explore — always filled with something new and inspiring.

Our Vision: 

A world where paper is forest-free and creativity flourishes in written word

Our Mission: 

We curate a responsibly sourced, thoughtfully crafted collection of beautiful paper things that inspire and delight, while helping our community understand that protecting forests means rethinking how paper is made.

Values in Action:

Hi - I’m Carol. I’ve always wanted to have a European-style paper shop. After many years of working across different industries and sectors, it’s time to make that dream a reality!

Our family moved back to Canada from the Swiss Alps in 2020 and we settled in Wakefield, Quebec, surrounded by forest on the beautiful Gatineau river.

I’ve worked in climate and forest conservation since returning back home. A Love Letter will take all that I’ve learned (and continue to learn!) and will aim to be a retail space to inspire and educate the community about protecting forests. A unique little paper store that leads with the trees.

After scoping out many different areas and neighbourhoods, Beechwood Avenue felt just right. I can’t wait to grow some roots here and get to know my neighbours. Please do pop in!
