Paper + Craft

paper and craft book | simple pretty

Perfect for the crafty friend or relative on your holiday shopping list: Paper + Craft. Photographed by Johnny Miller (you no doubt recognize his work for Martha Stewart) and styled by Randi Brookman Harris (who’s also from the World of Martha), the book is full of simple + charming projects from favorite designers Minhee and Truman Cho of Paper + Cup. (I think Minhee and Truman’s aesthetic was the gateway to my love for clean, modern design and letterpress.) Templates for the book’s projects are accessible over the internet: a smart detail as it keeps the book uncluttered and lends it an arty/coffee table feel. Available through Chronicle Books, Amazon, and of course, bookstores.

UPDATE: Chronicle Books is offering 35% off and free ground shipping through December 5 as part of its Friends & Family Holiday Sale! Simply enter promo code “FRIENDS” when shopping chroniclebooks.com.
