Handmade paper from flax & recycled textiles
You’ll fall in love.
The beauty of handmade paper is undeniable. The magic of making it is mesmerizing.
I fell in love with hand papermaking the moment I tried it. I now grow flax at my farm on Cape Breton Island to create beautiful crisp and strong papers with an old world feel. I also give new life to worn garments and linens as fibres to make bright and playful papers for a variety of stationery and art works.
