Handcrafted Sustainable Stationery & Paper Flowers Buffalo
Combining a love of words and structure into book arts and papercrafts.
Hey there!
My name is Janna Willoughby-Lohr and I am the owner and artist behind Papercraft Miracles. Based in my hometown of Buffalo, NY, I have been a poet, artist and musician for most of my life, writing my first little poems starting at just age 5. I attended Warren Wilson College in Asheville, NC where I developed my love and craft of book arts under the instruction of renowned book artist, Gwen Diehn. It was at WWC where I decided that I wanted to create art for my livingbut I didn't want to be a starving artist. So I created my own major, Integrative Studies with a concentration in Entrepreneurial Creative Business Artsor how to make money from art for short! I created Papercraft Miracles (the idea anyway) way back in 2004 and it has grown into a way of life for me. In January 2016, I left my full-time day job to become Work-at-home-mom or WAHM to our little dude and started doing art full-time. I have been getting all my ducks in a row and am finally getting my papermaking studio set up. It will be running at full capacity by April 2016.
I love creating artwork that is not only beautiful to look at, but that is functional and feels good in your hands. In the days where so much of the world is going digital, I feel called, even more now, to preserve and promote the physicality of book and paper arts.
There's just something about handling paper that simultaneously sends to to the moon and brings me back to earth.
Thank you for visiting and taking you time to learn about me and my work. Custom work is always available and I love a challenge! If you can dream up an idea.I can make it come to life.
Janna
