Paperchase fell into administration last month and all of its 106 stores in the UK are set to close.
The closure of its physical stores is another blow to the diminishing UK high street and will impact around 900 jobs.
When the closure of the chain was announced, Paperchase said its stores would continue to trade for the foreseeable.
In a statement this week, the stationary retailer's administrators said that there would be a "gradual reduction" in the number of stores operating over the next few weeks as "stock levels are reduced".
This means the exact date when each store will close will vary and depends on how much stock is left to sell.
Paperchase's website closed for good last Friday with shoppers informed about the news in an email sent earlier in the week.
Paperchase told shoppers that it was with a "heavy heart" that it was closing its online store, and thanked those who gave the brand "support and loyalty" over the years.
Over the next few weeks, shoppers will still be able to shop at Paperchase physical stores and could get discounts of up to 50% on certain items.
Even though Paperchase's standalone stores and site are to be lost, the actual Paperchase brand itself is to live on.
This is because Tesco bought the brand's intellectual property and will start to sell Paperchase products in its supermarkets when Paperchase's standalone branches stop trading.
This list includes the 106 standalone Paperchase stores, as well as the 28 concession stands in Next, Selfridges, and Arnotts.
