Paper

This is the paper from yesterday, it has dried quite nicely, this is from both sides, a little too much texture but not bad for a first attempt.

This is the rosemary from our front garden
I will be making the paper again but this time keeping it simple, just use one colour for the sheets and add colour and texture with plant material after it has been pulped. I should get better results this time around.
The same rosemary just stripped from the stems.

  1. Hi Sue,
    The process of making paper looks very interesting.
    I love hand made paper but I don't have the room or the likes of mess around to be making my own.
    Good on you for having a go!
    Stay cool,
    Hugs,
    Anna

  2. This looks really interesting..
    I always look out to try something new. Might wait for the better weather so it can dry quicker.
    Really good new project. Thanks.
