“Recycled paper is important to me. Dolphin Blue prints on a huge selection of beautiful paper of a quality that I could find only from a specialty paper shop. Their personal service – including a thank you call after I placed an order – made me feel appreciated. Dolphin Blue combines the convenience of internet shopping with personal service one experiences from a neighborhood business.” Leah Kreger, Principal, Indamine Ochre Architecture
