USEless Paper's Mission
Paper is one of the most useful items this world has ever seen. Although I've often wondered why its misused, abused and wasted by the tons on a daily basis. So the goal of USEless PAPER Designs is to give paper its due recognition and take it a step further by making the everyday useless item have a use & purpose. Our world is cluttered with junk mail, overdue bills, cardboard boxes, advertisements, and other frustrating mess inspired items, although when looked upon as a means of creativity those things truly make....more messes... BUT ultimately more beauty on the earth. That truly is the goal of my work to create beauty with the essentially everyday useless item.
What do I create?
USEless PAPER Designs specializes in recycled paper making of all weights sizes and colors. Upon making the paper various artistic process' are underway such as, original art greeting cards, art journals, personalized business labels, invitations, gift tags, place cards, and so much more. I also make various other items with recycled paper scraps such as sewn paper ribbon, paper buttons, paper quilts, and the like.
Not all paper is handmade, as you'll notice in many of my journals. There is nothing more soothing than writing your thoughts on a smooth piece of paper. With that being said, on occasion I like to create artistic looking books full of lively handmade paper.

I make other things too...!
Also, I've delved into making paper blinds, which is a rewarding result and soothing window companion. I have yet to begin my exploration of paper lamp shades. I have the resources and creativity to do it, but not there yet. I just started making bio-degradable paper planters though, and they are lovely.
