Lindsey Hinkle packages together subscriptions to Neatography, her mail-order paper goods business.Ever since she was a young girl, Harrison resident Linds3y Hinkle has collected notebooks and cards of all kinds. She’d write or draw in them and let her creativity flow.
“It was really compelling to me,” Hinkle said. “I was working my job and searching for more, and it just dawned on me that I was passionate about paper and stationery.”
After developing a business plan for a brick-and-mortar stationery shop, Hinkle discovered she was pregnant with her now-2-year-old daughter. She thought that would put a hold on her plans.
“But I was thinking, I have this plan and I can’t just let someone else do it,” she said. “I needed to do it, but I started rethinking the idea.”
And thus was born Neatography, a subscription service for the paper lover. After signing up online, each month or quarter, subscribers receive a package of paper items including, but not limited to, cards, labels and notebooks.
