About The Paper House

The Paper House is an actual house made from paper.
Newspaper.
It was built by Mr. Elis F. Stenman, a mechanical engineer who designed the machines that make paper clips, began building his Rockport summer home out of paper as a hobby. That was in 1922.

The paper was meant to be good insulation. Eventually, not only was the house made of paper, but furniture as well, including some intricate and beautiful pieces.
For more about the background, read the interview with his grand niece. For an interesting look at what you’ll see, let’s step inside.

Do I need to add words to get my point across about this picture?

Like I could write that you should go there and try this but do I really need to take the time or does the picture motivate you to want to mosey on over and order one up?

Fisherman’s End of Day, Lanes Cove

All of a sudden, I see fishermen walking to the water with rods, anglers casting from the rocks, and boats trolling the shoreline at sunset. The season is here.
