Paper making
Supply List
Paper to recycle – the 4-hers loved our old colored best
As old programs, etc. Vessels can use newsprint.
Blender
Water
1-2 Tubs for water
Strainers
Framed mesh mold for square paper
I made mine with old screen from a screen door, a rectangle frame (stretcher bars work great) & tape.
I used the measure of the water tubs I found at the local hardware to determine the size of my frames.
Cookie Cutters for ornaments
Beach ball, Balloons for shapes, or anything you can blow up and then let the air out of
Bowls and non stick kitchen spray
Optional: pedals and leaves
Directions
Fill blender with water. Add only 1-2 sheets of paper. Blend until desired consistency. Use as determined for project.
For sheets pour over framed mesh mold, shake lightly to get water off. Flip onto newsprint to dry. If you want to add pedals or leaves, you can place them on your mesh sheet and then pour in your pulp.
This will take at least a day to dry unless you have lots of blow dryers.
For bowls take paper pulp and sculpt into desired shape around a balloon or bowl that was coated with spray. Remember you will need a larger top to let it slide out. For larger projects you should do several “batches” of paper to insure color consistency.
