Love this book, but the link to Paper Coterie isn't working. Any idea? Are they redoing their website?

Meredith said...

Hi there - I have been busy building a book on the Paper Coterie website, but for the last week, the website has been totally unavailable! Do you know what it isn't working?? I have an entire book on their just waiting to be printed :(

I've been trying to get on their site, too. It showed under maintenance for a bit, but now nothing. Their Facebook page is also non-existent now. I had some money left on a gift card I was hoping to use. It looks like they just went out of business without a word.

Me Too...the customer service 1-800 # says "this ext does not exist". I am so sad!!! There products were top notch!

I have ordered NUMEROUS products from this company (5 memory boxes just last Christmas). Not only were their products top-notch, but also their customer service. To just go off line or out of business without a word to their customers is less than top notch. I'm mortified. I was going to order a memory box for my new granddaughter. Does the Mama Love blogger have any idea what's gonig on. Thanks!

Mama Love said...

I have no idea what happen to them, I have had multiple people ask me and I have been trying to contact them with no luck! I think it's so strange too their company was fantastic and just disappeared! If I hear anything at all I will let you know

DO U HAVE ANY OTHER WEBSITE LIKE THIS WHO WOULD PROBABLY DO SWATCH CARD INVITATIONS?

Unknown said...

I found your blog while frantically trying to find the Paper Coterie site again. I have ordered so many wonderful products from there and have several projects in progress. How do you just completely disappear with no trace? If anyone has suggestions for another site that does similar things I'd love to know.

Unknown said...

When was your last contact with them?

Chase and Amy said...

I had my little boy's whole baby book ready to order,I went the next day to order it and it was gone! I am REALLY sad about it! I'd like to know what happened to the site too!

Unknown said...

I had an unused gift card from there too. I just tried to log on today & couldn't find anything about them going out of business. So frustrating! I'd love to know if anyone finds out anything.

I had 300 bucks worth of gift cards for paper coterie that I was SO excited to put to use...if they are really gone that is really upsetting. I had some great books from their site that our puppy chewed, and I was going to re-order those and make new books...just hadn't got around to it. I am SUPER bummed to lose out on the gift card value and wish they had given some warning! This is just awful news :( their products were so cute and the quality was great. I will have to check back for updates. Glad others have posted info since all other searches came up empty. How awful and sad.

It is crazy that they went out of business with no warning, I loved their memory box product, but what a bad business practice. I found this website that details how you can make a memory box

A lot of work, but one idea!

I love Paper Coteire and was even one of their first customers, so I was sad when I couldn't find them any more all of a sudden. To those who are looking for another company who makes similar things, I now use mpix.com. They have some cute products and I feel all of their stuff is also high quality.

Unfortunately the company that owned them from Canada decided they didn't want to run the website anymore and shut it down with less than an hours notice to everyone, even the employees.

Shelli said...

Are you aware of any company that makes memory boxes like paper coterie? They were my favorite!!! I'm so sad...

I have been searching for info and companies like Paper Coterie because I, like many of you, loved them. I ordered our calendar each year through them it saddens me to know that I can't this year.

After searching posts and the internet I have found http://www.createphotocalendars.com/
It appears they have similar products, I will know the quality once I place my order. If you want to sign up please let them know I sent you by using KDYLVG as the share code!
Thanks and enjoy!
