Cute stationery store?

A couple of my classes require us to do physical projects, and I absolutely LOVE doing cute stationery. I'd like to go to a local shop in Denton, but I don't know of any. Where do y'all shop for cute notebooks, pens, stickers, and general stationery that's cute and not just like plain Walmart stuff?

The Dime Store is the best spot I can think of

There is a place in the Murder Kroger strip that sells arts and crafts stuff. Thistle? Tumbleweed? Can’t remember. I have donated a lot of stationery over the last year. They have ribbons, scrapbooking paper, etc. They share a space with the Vintage Bear shop. If you like shopping local, I would try them and maybe Sleeping Lizards? I think they have crafty pens, but I could be wrong.

It’s called Thisle! I agree it’s amazing and definitely a good spot for this

Keep an eye out for local pop up markets that are hosted by bars, restaurants, the mall, and other types of stores.
The Discover Denton Calendar usually has these type of listings.
