Paper fantasies

Eco-Sustainable Story

Imagination and creativity transform a simple piece of paper into magical shapes. Folding and refolding, wetting and gluing, joyful little crafts come to life to personalize any space. The room becomes the nest of a flock of indigo and green butterflies. They flutter here and there under the ceiling, overlapping like flowers on a fabric of organic and eco-friendly cotton by Mila Fibres. Delicate paper veils solidify, covering a lovely decorative object with the rough textures of linen by Lino per sempre / Northern Linen certified by European Flax®. Pages from old books find a second life to tell stories in a new way. Like an eco-sustainable fabric by Textil Santanderina, written sheets can take on the roles of their heroines, stepping out from between the covers. Imagination unfolds endless possibilities to transform a flat sheet of cardboard into volumes and shapes. The cotton-linen blend by Tex Athenea takes part in a clever engineering play, weaving a colourful cardboard cube without cuts, while an accessory by Lampa brings an origami piglet to life. Among prints and different patterns, you can experiment with playful and cheerful combinations. Colours intersect in a star-shaped flower, much like the harlequin threads in Polopiqué fabric. With meticulous and patient handiwork, curled petals open up, blooming into dense and lively vegetation resembling a Liberty Fabrics print. Such a versatile material keeps boredom at bay, offering entertainment through creative recycling hobbies. Shaped by a creative spark, a pulp of papier-mâché becomes a solid sculpture, a theatrical character, and its silvery moon, reminiscent of a TG di Fabio fabric. A shapeshifting medium, much like a fabric by Maglificio Corno, can capture the wind in the wings of a pinwheel or bloom in the grass as tulips with painted petals, just like a print on Lenzing™ EcoVero™ viscose by GM Fabrics.
