hi, i'm mej
you can call me mej (pronounced ‘medge’) - it’s my initials and a nickname from high school, or megan, meg, mj – or ask my friends for my more embarrassing nicknames

i’m from truro, nova scotia, canada and currently based in montreal.
i’m a daydreamer and a vintage lover, i have a sweet tooth the size of texas and i love all things glitter and gold. i’m obsessed with the number 3, cheetos, and old trucks.
welcome to my mind, take a look around
mej on paper is where you’ll find my original artwork, prints, cards, journal and planner resources, and much more. my core collections center around the mej muses : the little doodle that started this entire business, she’s become a symbol of self love, self acceptance, and self discovery – a reminder that you can be your own muse, and draw inspiration from everything around you.

if you had asked me 5 years ago if this was where i’d be – i’d laugh. but inspiration strikes like lightning, and now here we are
