Custom Orders

We primarily make paper for demos, workshops, and our personal artwork. When we first started up we made larger custom wholesale orders, but we have shifted gears and prefer to work on custom orders for artists and small businesses. We love working on unique projects that highlight sustainability in papermaking, using waste products to create unusual handmade papers. 

Here's some of the fibers we use for making paper:
- used textiles made of cotton, linen + hemp (like t-shirts, jeans, + towels)
- seasonal plant waste (like iris leaves, invasive weeds, corn husks, etc.)
- paper trimmings from local PDX area printers (like Egg Press)

We also enjoy using flax, hemp, mulberry, mitsumata, gampi and abaca, though we order these fibers from papermaking suppliers rather than sourcing them locally. 

Our papers are made using either Western or Eastern techniques, depending on the fiber and desired use of the paper. Our largest custom order size is currently 22x30". We can make smaller papers in the 16x20", 12x15", 11x17", 8.5x11" ranges. 

You can use our papers for fine art applications like printmaking, bookmaking, letterpress printing, painting and drawing (we sure do!), but you can also use them for fun scrapbooking projects, for letter writing, or journaling. Depending on its intended use, our papers can be heavy duty and thick like cardstock, or thin and wispy like tissue paper.

Custom orders are currently closed until Summer 2025.
