firstfloorflat's Shop Announcement

Welcome to 1st Floor Flat!

I'm a mixed-media artist, bookbinder, jeweller ... and ... I love to teach!

I'm a bit of a magpie: a collector of vintage paper and ephemera, which I make into unique art pieces. My sketchbooks and journals are made with beautiful papers: Bockingford, Fabriano and other heavyweight paper that will take any amount of abuse. My keepsake albums use smooth, flexible papers that are perfect for mounting your photographs and ephemera. I build all of these by hand, right from cutting up the greyboard (chipboard/Davey board) through to sewing the books and decorating the covers.

I also make blog backgrounds, headers, buttons, email links... fun toys to cutomise your blogs and make them beautiful. Also Etsy headers and avatars.

The cherry on the cake: my downloadable Workshops: pdf documents that you can print out, with fully illustrated notes, step-by-step photographs and a gallery of finished images. Whether a beginner or more advanced, you will easily be able to make albums, journals etc - and Altered Books, cards, scrapbooking, journalling... the list goes on! These are affordable, collectible modules that all work together no matter what your individual interest.
