Make Cornwall is a celebration of the joy of the handmade, the passion and integrity of makers, and the power of a very special place. I’m proud to be featured alongside some of the best makers in the South-West, offering a glimpse into the cyanotype process and into what is often an ever-changing workspace for me. If you love thoughtful design, slow craft, and coastal creativity, Make Cornwall captures all of it beautifully. It is also a wonderful introduction to the wider world of Cornish craft, where natural materials, skilled hands, and a strong sense of place come together in meaningful ways.
For Paper Birch, this feature was more than a spotlight in a beautiful book. It was an opportunity to show how make Cornwall style creativity influences my everyday process, from gathering seaweed and plants to building prints that reflect the shifting colours and textures of the coast. If you are exploring handmade art, Cornwall-inspired design, or the story behind independent makers, this article gives you a deeper look at the ideas behind the work.
If you like the cover design or the coastal aesthetic featured in Make Cornwall, you can explore our Seaweed Print Collection. These prints are inspired by Cornish seaweed, shoreline textures, and the changing colours of the coast. They make beautiful wall art for homes, studios, cottages, and gift-giving occasions.
