Paper gives us very tactile and cerebral experiences at the same time.

And it is amazing how so many materials and uses are always changing, but paper and paper crafts… Continue reading
I am paper lover. So, as you can imagine, I love to read books on paper. I love to read and read a lot. The smell of a new book – the specific alchemic relationship between the chemicals in the paper and in the inks makes me so excited! Sometimes – yes, I confess –… Continue reading
I started my first Bullet Journal in the first month after my Mother and Grandmother both died within only 4 days. It was an awful period!
