handmade stationery and upcycled textiles - slowly made pieces for busy hands
The Cottage Notebook Club ~ A little paper love
The Cottage Notebook Club is a subscription for lovers of old-school offline connection, thoughtful details, and slow-made stationery. Embrace the bittersweet feeling of a filled notebook, knowing another is on its way.
Choose your delivery frequency - you'll receive a handbound notebook (designed to be both beautiful and useful!) a coordinated sticker and bookmark, and a recycled/upcycled gift tag to share the touch of giving.
Be inspired to organise, write, draw, create.
WELCOME
to Book and Kettle Cottage Crafts! What started as piece-of-mind project in the trenches of new motherhood is now a small business, growing to support my family and created in the "inbetween". There's still so much more to come than what's online today and I'm working hard behind-the-scenes to bring it all to life.
Intentional | Upcycled | Recycled
My work is centred in intentionally finding materials with a lighter environmental footprint. I discover and reimagine textiles to upcycle for my fabric items and choose natural, recycled and sustainably sourced papers for my paper products.
Mindfully making handmade pieces for a secondlife.
