Perfectbound D*S Guest Blog : Amazing Paper

Perfectbound Guest Blog

Have you seen last week’s Design*Sponge guest blog? Julie and Kathryn from the beautiful and inspirational blog, perfectbound, were the featured bloggers, and they gave all of us paper lovers a feast for the eyes, showcasing everything from paper cut art and cards to wallpaper made from magazine tear sheets to paper furniture and the textiles shown above, made from … wait for it … spun paper yarn. Amazing!

New Sponsor : Donna Geissler Photography

Please welcome Paper Crave’s newest sponsor, award winning photographer Donna Geissler. I find Donna’s work to be so atmospheric and evocative, and many of her photographs of flowers and nature have a painterly quality that truly elevates them to another level. Check out snippets from a few of her photographs below, and purchase prints of her work to decorate your home or to give as gifts over at her shop.

Oh, my. How adorable are these prints from Haciendo El Indio? I can’t stop looking at all of the super cute characters. They also make irresistible dolls, bibs, and crib and wall decorations for childrens’ rooms and nurseries. The shop is based in Spain, but they ship worldwide, so you can have a little piece of Haciendo Et Lindio wherever you live!
