I wanted to make paper chains before Christmas to hang in my workroom ... but didn't get to them til today. Oh well ... they're fun any time of year! My mom, son and I put these together in a couple of hours, using old dictionary pages ("Mom, why do you like old dictionaries so much?") and lots of glitter! We were sparkly all over by the end of the afternoon!
Hello! I'm Trina and this is the blog for The Paper Flea Market (which is becoming Jubilee Flea next month!) My online store and studio specializes in paper + fun old stuff. In addition to being a shopkeeper, I'm an artist and paper enthusiast. I adore paper and old things and see potential in everything. My artwork includes greeting cards, art journals, mixed media pieces and clever handmade home decor, and has been published in "Country Living", "Somerset Life", "Art Journaling" and "Greencraft" magazines. My cards were included in the book "1000 Handmade Greetings" and can currently be found at specialty boutiques across the country. I also sell my work at pop-up boutiques and flea markets. Please contact me for show dates and locations and for wholesale card orders at thepaperfleamarket@yahoo.com
