Beautiful Paper

I have always believed in the sheer power of a beautiful piece of paper. Whether it be to create a lovely thank you card that will make someone’s day, or to use as a backdrop for a masterpiece, paper is something that is used often but never fully appreciated for the important role it plays in every day life. I was browsing the web in awe of some of the beautiful paper products all over the world, when I came across this amazing paper dress made from phonebook pages. You can see more photos of the dress on Flickr.

When I searched this phenomenon a little further I came across Cheap Chic Weddings which is a site that hosts a yearly contest for people to create their own paper wedding gown. A gorgeous paper wedding gown and Papeterie wedding stationery…what could be better?
