How beautiful. I love this! I don't think I've ever tried making my own paper before, but I'd love to give it a go. I already see that David has left a comment below, 😅 so I think we should both definitely have a go at making our own.

It is such a rewarding process and you get better at it quite quickly. X

This is so interesting; it reminded me that I went through a phase of making my own paper as a child. I think we might have done it at school, and inevitably, I also wanted to try it at home. It was frightfully amateur and not always terribly successful, but I do remember the satisfaction of having produced something tangible from the most unlikely of ‘ingredients’. Perhaps this is something I should reconnect with!

There is something quite unique about this craft. Transformational comes to mind. Time to make some paper.

It is transformational, yes!

I have always wanted to make my own paper!! I love all that you add to your paper! It looks amazing!!! I am a paper lover and hoard it proudly…and the rough, deckled edges are the most beautiful thing!!!

When will your class start up? I have a very busy November with my son’s wedding, so I am worried that the timing may not line up.

Love reading your posts… happy Sunday friend!

Hi fellow paper lover! I am aiming to make paper with our winter book arts project so after December. If you take out a paid subscription beginning of December you won’t miss it. We shall be making some lovely wee journals with our paper as well. xx

I think you will love it. I will be issuing a supplies list for this so you only get what you need. However, you will need a food processor that you don't use for anything else so keep an eye out in charity stores. xx

I meant blender not processor! Just something that can whizz quickly. x
