Middle Dune Paper Goods

Handmade stationery and notebooks, based on Cape Cod, MA. We specialize in letterpress, screen printing, and hand bound books.

Middle Dune offers handmade paper goods, specializing in notebooks, blank journals, and pocket-size jotters. Using a variety of techniques and materials, all goods are hand cut, bound, carved, and printed with care in Somerville, MA. Middle Dune paper goods are the creation of Sylvia Tomayko-Peters, a craftsperson writer, and digital artist. The name Middle Dune derives from an affectionate nickna

me for the house in which she grew up, on the lovely Cape Cod, MA. In the house her parents built themselves, perched on top of a sand dune, the family often said that the beach was one more dune to the west and the road, one more dune to the east. Hence, the house was nestled atop the "middle dune." After graduating from Brown University, Sylvia felt a need to break away from the nine-to-five and return to her roots, getting creative with her hands. Raised by two visual artists, the desire to create has been instilled in her for as far back as memories go. After taking several courses during her years in college, bookmaking became the ideal project; the perfect combination of her love of pen and paper and her art-making impulses. Sylvia's books are hand designed and crafted. The majority of papers used in her products are also hand printed, created from designs Sylvia carves herself. If you asked her what her favorite part of the bookbinding process is, she'd have to answer sewing a coptic stitch binding!

✨ Hello October ✨

🏺 vessels, but for your words 🏺 I love this little order put together by a customer. Usually my favorites don’t get a lot of love - for some reason that’s just how it works - so I’m always thrilled when someone wants to buy amphorae!

Spring is in the air 🦊🌷 but I’ll never stop taking photos with seasonally inappropriate fall colors. Check out our new enamel pins now!

Spent Friday printing my first etching. I’ve barely found time to work on this lately - I pulled the proofs months ago. But, now it’s all ready for a second round of etching whenever I can find the time to get back into the print shop.

I’m feeling very beachy after pulling this coastal inspired set of cards one of our stockists put together. I love seeing the combinations everyone puts together and it’s a very evident reminder of the themes that run through my work.

✨NEW PINS ARE COMING SOON✨ Letterpress printing gives the backing cards that come with our enamel pins just a little extra pop. I switched to black and gold for this reprint because... why not?

In the fall I often get the comment that my work or the way I dress is so seasonally appropriate. What they don’t know (but you know) is that‘s how I design and dress all year - it’s spooky season all year round here! 🌾✨🍂☕️ What’s your power season?

Keeping in touch feels more important than ever these days and you guys seem to agree because you’ve been ordering lots of letterpress notecard sets. They’re perfect for when you want to let someone know you’re thinking about them but don’t want the pressure of writing a novel. I’ve definitely been trying to up my letter writing game (not sure I’ve succeeded), what about you?

So happy you guys have been enjoying the new patches! What sort of merit badge style patches would you like to see in the future?
