The Paper Home

.

The Paper Home looks like it was written for me!

"From card stock to cardboard, and using techniques from papier-mâché to origami, this avant-garde book shows paper crafters looking for a new twist–or any designer eager to experiment with a new medium–how to create unique home accents."

When we eventually get the family room painted I've been wanting to put a giant clock on one wall. Since we have vaulted ceilings some of our walls are quite tall so the bigger the better. Part of my reasoning is that because Steve's eye site is kinda bad, it would be big enough that he could easily read it. I've seen them in stores but how cool to make my own!

Plus that design on the cover already has my head spinning with other ideas. It's so symmetrical - my middle name!

This book has been out since April but there are no customer reviews on Amazon yet. And you can't look inside, but I added it to my wish list anyway.

I found this through the Google Alert I set up to search all blogs once/day for the word paper. At least twice/week I find something artsy and interesting that way.
