Paper Quilt Wall Art

February 01, 2007 // kristen // 1 replies

I caught this Reader’s Art post over at the Apartment Therapy blog the other day and thought it was such an inspirational idea. As the creator of the paper quilt wall art pointed out, the ultra popular wall decals aren’t within everyone’s budget, and creating your own paper wall art is a much more budget-friendly way to spruce up a non-permanent space.

They created a snazzy paper quilt, but the possibilities for a project like this are endless. Since you’re the one making the art, you can customize colors to match your color scheme and designs to fit your interests. Maybe a wall of pretty botanicals or a more intricate patterned design?

I’m so stoked to see that P22, one of my favorite type foundries, is offering an ephemera pack! Each pack contains over 40 different P22 items, from stickers to packaging (printed letterpress, offset, silkscreen, and more), for only $10! They also offer a Bigger Pack (80 items) and a Mega Pack (120 items) for $20 and $30, respectively. If you have a habit of saving catalogs, greeting/post/business cards, and other inspirational print collateral that you receive in the mail, then the P22 ephemera pack would be the perfect addition to your collection.

Susan Stockwell

decor8 just featured the work of London based artist Susan Stockwell, who uses paper as her primary medium. I’m amazed by the creativity of Stockwell, who uses everything from recycled coffee filters to maps to create works ranging from Victorian dresses and quilts (shown above) to maps of South America.
