Collage

Celebrate the launch of the Twelve Days of Winter Collection—twelve words, three handmade pieces each, and one luminous winter story brought to life through collage, books, and artful design.

Before unveiling Twelve Days: A Winter Collection, I wanted to share the art of gift presentation—how each handmade piece is wrapped with care, layered in paper and ribbon, and finished with meaning. This quiet ritual is as much a part of the story as the art itself.

Before the unveiling comes reflection. Twelve winter words — once scattered and separate — now gather as one: a story that became books, ornaments, and pagekeepers in the Twelve Days of Winter Collection.

The final words of the Twelve Days of Winter Collection—Ember, Glisten, and Snowfall—speak to the transformation of warmth into light, and light into stillness. Each reflects a moment in the season’s rhythm and the art of the handmade, where creativity glows softly and beauty settles into calm.

The Twelve Days of Winter story continues with three new words—Glow, Drift, and Pine. Each word is a touchstone, rendered into handmade books, pagekeepers, and ornaments. Glow brings warmth, Drift invites calm, and Pine stands for strength and memory. Together, they deepen the unfolding winter story that will soon become the full collection.

The Twelve Days of Winter is a handmade collection of books, ornaments, and pagekeepers inspired by twelve poetic winter words. In this first glimpse, discover Frost and a look into the making process behind the art.

From PVA to rice paste, here's how I choose the best glue for collage—and why it matters for lasting, layered artwork.

From preschool easels to hand-painted collage ephemera, my creative path has always followed joy. Collage lets me explore color, texture, and surprise through found and handmade materials. It’s a medium where fabric meets paper, and intuition meets process—rooted in rhythm, guided by curiosity. And most of all, it brings me joy.

From ancient bookmarks to Victorian silks, we've always marked our place. Today, Page Keepers offer a clever, artful twist—crafted around paper clips to hold your story beautifully in place.
