I love Etsy.com. I could (and occasionally do) spend hours clicking through page after page of people's handmade crafts and vintage findings. I especially appreciate crafts that make artful use of salvaged materials. Here are some of my latest finds, all made from vintage paper and books.
Thumbtacks made from old dictionaries, vintage fabrics, handmade papers, old children's books, ledger papers, stamps, vintage wallpaper, love letters, maps, and more by Found & Made Designs. The artist also makes jewelry.
Paperweight made from an old library card (a reminder of those long-gone days of the card catalog) by Ephemeralogie.
Two-ring binders made from old Reader's Digest Condensed Books by
Cluttershop.
