MAKING HANDMADE PAPER

These guys in my Basic Design Class at Conception Seminary College are making their own handmade paper from recycled office memos, nature bits they've gathered in surrounding woods and cut up lines of their favorite psalms. The paper will be used in creating the covers and inside pages of a hardbound sketchbook journal focusing on the design elements of Shape and Texture.

The paper is nade in a two-part mold: a screened frame and a deckle.


There are severeal methods for making paper.  Here we are using the poured pulp technique.
