Vintage Estonian Children's Craft Book Rebime ja lõikame – Paper Collage 1964

Rebime ja lõikame (We Tear and Cut) – Eva Lootsar

A cheerful 1964 craft album from Tallinn that teaches children to make pictures from torn and cut paper. Silvi Väljal’s bold, flat-color collages – snowmen, a sailboat, a cottage under a full moon – are pure mid-century graphic design, lovely to frame or to use for a craft afternoon.
