Welcome to moonscape handmade, home of unique, hand-bound wedding guest books, photo albums, & other paper-made goods.

About me: My name is Melissa. I am a graphic designer at my day job, but an artist first and foremost. As such, I put a lot of thought into each of my book designs, and I make and bind each one meticulously with care. :)

Half of all my profits go to support the Charis Project, a non-profit organization working in Thailand to rescue orphaned Burmese hill tribe children before they are captured and sold into sex trafficking. For almost 60 years now, the government in Burma has been actively seeking to annihilate the minority ethnic groups within it's borders. The Charis Project works to equip both the adult and child refugees who have come over the border into Thailand with the tools and resources they need to live and prosper, with the hope that one day they'll be able to return to a peaceful Burma. Visit their website for more info at www.thecharisproject.org. Also check out their new Etsy store, where they sell bags handmade by Thai women- all profits go to support the tribes where they're made! http://www.etsy.com/shop/charisproject
