painted papers techniques 🌿 Part One: my messy may 2026 book
If you are a hoarder of brown packing paper like I am, you might have a little too much hanging around than you realistically need. So alongside keeping some still for sending out packages, for making wrapping paper (love it with white paint details!), or kids using for covering the table while painting, I am taking some of the leftover bits and making them into an art journal! Join me with part one, prepping the signatures, a little inspiration from another book, and some real time "planning" (we use that term quite loosely here!) as we go.
