We met Debra Flanagan
at our neighborhood Whole Foods when she gave us an origami turkey that she made from
one of her handcrafted wrapping papers.

Her coatings adhere non-destructively to
standard clear ("scotch") tapes. So, the tape does not tear the finish
and the paper can be reused. Many
other creative projects can integrate these unique papers. Debra Flanagan
paints her specially-made papers by hand. The paper is sold by the roll (26 inches by 72 inches, more or less) at local Austin craft stores, artisan events, and Whole
Foods markets. She has an email
address, PaintedPapers@Yahoo.com, but no blog or website.
You can read more about her at the
Clarksville Pottery website here.
Clarksville is a neighborhood just outside of downtown Austin. Founded by freedman Charles Clark in 1871, Clarksville is the
oldest surviving post-Civil War freedomtown west of the Mississippi River. Wikipedia here.)
