I like handmade cards to accompany my purchased weaving's. I used a jigsaw to make my mold and deckle from 1/4" scrap plywood. I really like the greyish-purple color that I got from using dye. I did the papermaking outside which eliminated the mess aspect. In the picture this is the recycled cotton paper cards with matching envelopes drying in the sun.

ReplyDeleteOh, so pretty!! I made paper once with a group of homeschoolers including my daughter, and it was really fun. We also did most of our work outdoors!
ReplyDeleteI've never made homemade paper, truly a work of art you have created! Which makes receiving the weavings such a double joy for your customers!
