Mill and Meadow

Mill & Meadow is a floral-inspired stationary, home goods, and accessory store in Brightleaf Square in Downtown Durham. The designs are created by Durham-based artist, Elyse Burns. There is so much to see! Stationary- planners, notebooks, cards! Home goods- tea towels, oven mitts, hot pads, pillows, blankets, sun catchers and MORE! Accessories- stickers, bags/pouches, keychains, pins, wristlet rings, AND hair and tech accessories! I enjoyed browsing through the store and found the PERFECT 2024 planner!

It was so much fun to shop Elyse Breanne items in a store! I loved getting to test things out myself. The gel pens were so fun! The store is in a very cute area in Durham...even my husband said so when I sent him a picture of the courtyard/building. Plus, it was fun to see Elyse in person after following her journey of her business on Instagram. It was like meeting a celebrity. She was like Oprah handing out gift bags for the soft opening of the store. She was just as sweet and hardworking as she seems in her videos. Her team seemed awesome as well. I already wanted to go back the same day after I'd left!

Here were my favorite items:

-Pen pouches (I use one as a wallet and one for pens and wax seal stuff. I originally got one as a gift, but ended up keeping both and will go back for another one for my friend)
-Gel pens (They're pretty, write well, and nice color ink... although testing them really made a difference in which ones I chose. I love the darker yellow. It can be hard to find a yellow that's easy to read. This one's perfect! I also love the mint green! And it's cute with the yellow and a pink I got.)
-Reusable grocery bags with a pocket (I bought 2 as a gift but decided to keep one because I like it so much)
-The pink t-shirt (which I got free for the grand opening, but I really love it!)

I wish I'd gotten one of the larger zipper pouches. I have a Clinique one I use to store feminine products, but I would like to upgrade to one of these because the patterns are so pretty and would make me even happier at that time of the month. 😂

So thankful for these gorgeous and useful products and very inspired by her story and art! So glad I made the trip out to this store while visiting friends in NC. It was as fun as I had imagined!

Lovely shop! I purchased the Pink Sage cotton tea towels. I like the contemporary, but cottage vibe of the shop and the graphics.

I love stopping at stationery stores while traveling and found Mill and Meadow while visiting Durham. It's one of the best I've been to! They have a ton of great cards at prices more affordable than other stationery stores tend to be (presumably because they seem to exclusively sell their own designs). In addition to stellar cards, their washi tape is high quality and their pens are SO good if you like fine-tipped pens. I bought two – in mint & lavender shades – and wish I would have purchased more. Hopefully I can find them in the online store. Can't recommend this shop enough!

Always a treat to visit Mill and Meadow! Customer service is amazing and the store is so so cute! It’s worth the drive every time.

Beautiful store, beautiful merchandise! My daughter originally found this company on TikTok and we happened to be in Durham over the weekend! I will definitely be a regular customer!!

everything was so cute! definitely consider supporting this local artist! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We stopped by from out of state. I love the store front, and I am super excited about my new journal and washi tape!

A gorgeous store front with personable customer service! A great place to treat yourself or get gifts for others.

love the vibes of this place!! very friendly people and pretty products!

Literally my favorite store in the world
