Domestic Papers ~ Homemade Books... with a Past!

Top shop for gifts.

Buyers bought gifts from this shop and gave them 5-star reviews!

Announcement    Fresh from my treasuring-hunting travels, I'm ready to meet all your summertime, one-of-a-kind, book-lovin' needs! Watch for plenty of new listings and special sales and coupons throughout these summer months!

Domestic Papers mixes my lifelong love of books, maps, paper, and antique ephemera into a modern 'mash-up' of Vintage Vibe handmade books I'm thrilled to share with you!

My shop is called Domestic Papers because I am a homebody artist in an explorer's body. I love to travel but even more, I love to be at home.

I find bookbinding endlessly fascinating because every one-of-a-kind book I make in my East End Houston studio can be traced back to books made centuries ago in far away lands.

As you browse my shop, you'll see that many of my books have a history all their own thanks, in part, to the old and interesting photos, postcards, maps, book illustrations, and general miscellany I collect when I'm away from home.

Select a book from Domestic Papers and you'll continue the tale that I've begun. The rest of the story is up to you!
Smiles and miles,
Lee

    My books have a Vintage Vibe, due no doubt to my family of DIYers and pickers always on the lookout for leftover inspiration. I love to mix old images, today's papers, and ancient bookbinding techniques to make something both timeless and useful now.
