I’m loving the super kawaii illustrations on this 3D printable 2009 calendar from Blackpio, spotted over at Folding Trees. The fun and colorful calendar is the perfect thing if you find yourself without a calendar for the new year.

Pajaki Chandelier by Wren Handmade

January 05, 2009 // kristen // 0 replies

Check out this beautiful Polish Pajaki chandelier that Wren Handmade created for her husband’s aunt (his family is Polish) for Christmas. She took her inspiration from a paper chandelier that she purchased at the Polish Art Center, and I’m so inspired by both creations!
Side note: Pajaki translates to “spiders of straw”, and if you do not like spiders, please be warned that Googling “Pajaki” will bring up lots of pictures of big, fat spiders instead of pictures of beautiful paper chandeliers. Bleh!

Happy New Year to all of you! Wow, it seems like it’s been forever since I last posted. My stack of paper cravings has only grown over the holiday break, and I’m back to sharing them with you starting today. So, enough chit chat and onto the paper goodies!

Happy Holidays

This is my last post before I take a little break for the holidays, and I wanted to wish you all a safe and fun time. 2008 has been a great one for Paper Crave, and I’m so thankful to all of you, who make this experience that much more enjoyable. A big thank you for your lovely comments, suggestions, and eye candy!

If you’re in need of some last minute food gifts, then check out the chocolate bark and candied pecan recipes over on my other blog. You can make and package both of these in an afternoon. Seriously! Printable PDFs of the labels are available for download, too.

Happy Holidays, and stay tuned for many more paper cravings in 2009!
