Creating
Hand-painted Papers

Creating lots of beautiful & unique papers fast!

When you need to make lots of matching papers, for a large mobile for instance, this is the way to get it done quickly.

Mostly painted papers but with gelli printed & stencilled detail added to make truly unique papers!

I like to use this technique also to make my own wrapping paper, usually once or twice a year will give me a nice stash of lovely gift wrapping paper! (it’s crazy how often people love the wrapping as much as the present!)

Hi, I’m Maggie Bergman

Sometimes all it takes is an idea, or even just a beautiful piece of paper to get inspired!

When I make my mobiles I need lots of paper and if you’re pressed for time that can sometimes take a bit too long. My go-to method is usually Gelli printing my papers, but making painted papers and adding little touches of stencilled or printed designs is a way to get things going fast!

You can use these papers for collages and all kinds of other paper projects as well of course!

Enjoy!
