Or should that be W.I.S.E??? I thought it would be fun to go through Folksy and look for great pieces from all over this creative island of ours. We still have traditions running throughout the whole of the UK from The Orkney's to Cornwall and Newcastle through to Llandudno and Belfast - it's great to see that they are thriving in all their various ways.I also enjoy seeing traditional materials also being used in a more contemporary way which, hopefully, will encourage these crafts to continue.

I love paper crafts and making books in particular. There's so many ways we can create books: from simply stapling paper together to the meticulously painstaking art of book binding. Here on Folksy there are some fantastic books and paper crafts and I hope you like this small selection.
