My name is Gift. I’m originally from Thailand and have been living in the US since 2018.

I’m a paper crafter and the founder of Down to Earth Paper. I make paper from recycled paper and turn it into notebooks, watercolor pads, and more.

I also offer a bookmaking workshop on how to make a tiny hardcover book from scrap paper and thrifted fabric. It is a calming, hands-on activity for anyone who needs a break from stressful work or is simply curious about the craft.

Living sustainably is important to me. So using secondhand materials in my work aligns deeply with my values. It keeps my art low waste and makes the craft accessible for beginners.

Papercrafting rekindles my creativity, calms my mind, and keeps me active.

And I know I’m not alone.

That’s why I share my joy in paper crafting with you.
