Hi, I’m Hilary and although Stirling is my home, I now divide my time between Scotland and the South of France, to which I have always felt a strong affinity. I love the language, the arts culture there and all that is shabby chic. I am also really inspired by Japanese aesthetics and design, zen and wabi-sabi, all handcrafts and of course Washi (Japanese paper). Consequently I have a passion for paper and book arts and I love binding beautiful papers, including ephemera, into books of many types. My interest in the use of paper extends to making journals and self-expression through journalling, collaging etc.
Photos of some of my creative work can be viewed on my flickr page.
If you share some of these enthusiasms, or you would just like to get in touch, please feel free to email me:
