Meet Isaly Ferguson | Owner Of The Seasonal Pages

We had the good fortune of connecting with Isaly Ferguson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Isaly, how did you come up with the idea for your business?
The Seasonal Pages is a stationery shop, where customers can find fun items such as stickers, bookmarks made from recyclable cardstock and ethical wood, stationery, postcards, and more. The Seasonal Pages believes in one’s soul being creative, happy and being the best you — which shows through the designs of the products. I am currently located in Tulsa, Oklahoma and love the idea of showcasing more Black art.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
I am Isaly the lady behind The Seasonal Pages. The Seasonal Pages is a stationery shop, where customers can find fun items such as stickers, bookmarks made from recyclable cardstock and ethical wood, stationery, postcards, and more. The Seasonal Pages was born out of the love of books, stationery and art. I have always adored art, books and writing which lead me to wanting a shop that combined all of my favorites.

The Seasonal Pages officially launched in January 2020 and has grew with more artwork, stationery and bookish content on a monthly basis. The Seasonal Pages started off with printable products at first and then grew into physical products. It was tough at first to find my footing but overtime I was able to understand how to display my love of art and books into one shop. I have learned to take my time and realize that I can develop new concepts one step at a time. Everyday with owning a business you learn a new skill or challenge but it makes you grow as a business owner.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I am originally from Chicago but currently live in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I think the best area to show the city of Tulsa would be downtown towards Black Wall Street and seeing the different areas from the past. Then after viewing museums, enjoying art and stores within the Black Wall Street area — a person could head towards Nola’s restaurant on Cherry’s street to enjoy Louisiana styled food.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I would like to shoutout my wonderful significant other for always being there throughout my business story along with my lovely customers.
