Little Joss Paper Booklets














Joss Paper Booklets

My love for various Asian paper continues. (Actually I love all paper but you probably already guessed that).
I made up a few little joss paper booklets and sent them out into the world.
Thought you all might enjoy seeing them. They are all a little different.
I had to keep one for myself of course.

These are totally easy to make and a lot of fun to write in -- or share with friends.
I'd rather get something like this for Halloween than candy.

Talk among yourselves and keep those comments coming (even if they may be slow on appearing on the blog..... they'll show up....)

You know what they say -- do something creative every day!

  1. Bright little books that I'd prolly be able to find in my purse lol. Love the mix of papers in these, especially the grammar school hand writing sheets. Very cool.

    1. Leslie -- I love those grammar school booklets too. And guess what?? I found Russian ones! The question is, will I be able to bring myself to tear them up??
      I really think i should use the stuff I cart back home but sometimes that first tear is so hard.....
