Recycled paper art and stationery

I can’t say that I’m really fond of recycled paper stationery (you know, the brown ones?). I find them too dark to write on—this type of paper isn’t something that I will find useful. In case I’d buy some, it’s probably just for my collection or to give as a gift.

Papemelroti specializes in recycled paper art and stationery, in addition to their wooden stuff collection. They sell really pretty novelty paper stuff. Take a look at their site and see what I mean.

The company used to be a small, family-run gift shop in Tomas Morato. Now, they’ve expanded to branches all over the city and added more products to their catalog. It’s basically still a gift shop, but with more products. Check out their paper products (which I particularly like collecting!).

Embedded petals on handmade paper

Among the handmade papers I purchased for no apparent reason except for the fact that they’re really pretty, this is one of my favorites:

handmade paper with embeded pandan leaves and Bougainvilla flowers

It’s made from Abaca fibers with embedded pressed Bougainvilla petals and pandan leaves. The natural Abaca color makes the flower petals and leaves really stand out, don’t you think?

Each sheet of this pretty paper costs around P50 ($1), and you can get it at a lower price if you purchase a lot. I’m not sure if they’re the only one who sell this type of design, but I got mine from Bulaon Novelty in SM Megamall.
