I'm referring to the high vs low points of the Momigamied paper. The crinkles of the paper create what I call "mountains," high points, and "valleys," low points of the crinkle structure. I hope this makes sense. If not, please let me know, and I'll try to better explain myself... ☺

I've been asked this a lot. Many people use them for collage, junk journals, etc. However, I have made jewelry and notebooks similar to Field Notes and a notebook similar to a matchbook! I'm now starting to sew on them and make little purses. I have so many ideas. You can do many things based on how you treat the paper for Momigami. Please look at some of my videos as I'm trying to build a library of everything you can do with these cool papers. Thank you so much for asking. Would love to see what you make! Have a great day!

@@louisebacon-ogden5032 you're very welcome. I love experimenting and it sounds like you do too. Thank you for sharing.

Awesome!! I'm so happy you like it. I use mine all the time and I made one for my Dad too! He loves it! You are very welcome.

You are very welcome!

The paper is stronger and can actually be sewn by hand or machine. I plan to make some jewelry with this fabric paper. But you can make book covers, lamp shades, mixed-media, collages, and the list goes on. I have additional videos on my channel of things you can do with momigami. Would love to hear what you make.

You are very welcome. Have fun!

Hi Marianne. I don't think it is necessary to paint; however, I do think it is necessary to seal. Especially since it will be around water. Air-dry clay is not like ceramics. It will break down with repeated exposure to water. I love to paint mine with acrylic paints just for the color. You could use any sealant. I like Modge Podge or Makers Magic. I prefer a satin finish. There are gloss and matte finishes, too. Happy creating!! Would love to see what you make! Thanks for asking.

You are very welcome. I'm so happy you have found my information helpful!! Keep creating!!

Thank you! I hope you have fun creating!

You are very welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I have a link in the description for free digital papers. I hope you can make many gifts!

Thank you so much for the kind words. Digitizing my traditional artwork is so handy. It really opens up so many options! It is so fun creating all kinds of papers. I have 6 of my papers available for free download on my creativerise.art blog. Here is a link to the post. creativerise.art/how-to-make-paper-beads/ If you have questions about the download, let me know. Thanks again!

That sounds awesome!! I would love to see what you create! Oh my is right. Thanks so much for sharing!

@@diannesumida6357 I think that’s a great idea. I did the same. Thanks so much for the info.

@@ninaleach6350 I love to hear this! You are so right. It is such a versatile and calming craft. I love all the things you can do with it. How wonderful that it helps your arthritic hands. Thank you for sharing!

@@bruno1285 I’ve never tried but I’ve been told no. It works best with old National Geographic’s due to the ink quality used when printing. I had old magazines given to me and these are the ones in the video. National Geographic has very high quality printing and paper in their magazines, thus the Citra Solv seems to make the ink “melt” in unusual and organic ways. I hope that helps. If you find out it works for you on other magazines I would love to know. Thanks so much.

@@jilllederer9628 you are very welcome! I have so many papers too and have to find fun ways to use them!! I have so many more ideas to share. I love that you are a Special Ed teacher. It would be great to do with them. I’m primary caretaker for my parents and have made stuff with my Dad! It’s awesome to share creative projects! As far as smallest, it’s hard to say. I would start with a large square 2-3 inches until the get the knack of folding. It gets real easy as you get familiar. Then take the size down to no smaller than 1 inch for earrings. The larger size can be used for a necklace. Sounds like an awesome project! Let me know how it goes!! Vicki

Oh, I see you already suggested that. Thanks for the shout out. I made the comment before I watched the whole thing.

@@creativepassages I plan to purchase Awagami paper and do some experiments. I didn’t add anything to the ink and water.

@@creativepassages Yep. I want to give this paper a try. I haven’t forgotten about your traditional art to digital file request either. I appreciate your support. It’s fun to learn from each other.

@@CreativeRiseArt I agree. Thanks.

Thank you! Hi in Belgium! I found the olive oil to be too greasy too. I have not, yet, added any finishes to my papers. However, I have used Modge Podge on my Momigami, Origami, earrings. It works nicely. I am experimenting with making DIY Pocket Notebooks with my Momigami papers and will probably add a finish to the cover. So happy you enjoyed the process. T😀

@@lzrd8460 It was an experiment based on another video I saw. I’ll post a link to the video. They used pure ink and I didn’t have enough ink to fill the container. That’s why I was using water.

Thanks. I know what you mean. I was on a Momigami-making mission. LOL!! It's so fun to experiment. I have a couple other projects coming up too!

Awesome allisonjames2923. This sounds fun. I've been experimenting and will definitely look into creating a video based on your comment. I just love hearing about others experiences. Thank you for taking time out and sharing your knowledge. I will have to see what I have on hand and give it a try. So fun!! Have a great day!

I, too, just saw a video about leaving your paper crumbled when drying. Great minds think alike! Thanks for sharing this info. I will be trying this, too! I also saw a video about using tracing paper. I think it becomes like Glassine paper. I haven't tried it yet but it might be something you have already done or would like to try too. Thank you again for sharing such cool ideas.

@@giuliettawebber6772 I’ve asked myself that same question. That's why I'm trying to create additional videos of “What to do with your Momigami papers.” The process is so fun and easy that you can make a lot of papers. Once you have kneaded your paper to the point you like you can make book covers, books, you can sew it. I made a cross-bag to wear when I’m hiking. Mostly, I make jewelry with the Momigami paper. I have a video to make a matchbook notebook and Momigami earrings on my channel. I will put likes in the comments. I hope this helped.

@@giuliettawebber6772 enjoy! I hope this helps. Have a great weekend!

@melindalacatus5722 Hi! I'm so glad you like it! There are so many fun things you can do. Enjoy. So great to hear from Romania! Best wishes to you!

Awesome! You are so welcome!

Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to try it!

@@CreativeRiseArt your welcome!

@@creativepassages another early riser! 😀have a great day!

@@CreativeRiseArt you too. I don't typically rise this early; I'm usually a night person, but it's slowly reversing.

I’m definitely with you on the awagami paper. Also Sumi inks work well. I have started learning Sumi e and have an abundance of the inks now. Also they didn’t soak the paper in the water in the video. There was more water so they could actually put both hands in and scrunch the paper underneath for a very short time before pressing it between newspaper. If using Sumi inks, wear gloves. I wonder how long it took for them to wash their hands 😂.

You should. You would create beautiful work based on what I have viewed on your channel.

Thank you. I hope to try it within a month or two. This was a great tutorial and maybe one day when Im no longer working and have more time to devote to art, I'll try making these earrings. I love how they use momigami papers!!! Good stuff! ​@Carry_Your_Message

I can do that. I will put it on my list of videos. It may take me a little while as I'm pretty slow at video making, but I finally get it done...LOL! Thanks so much for the suggestion.

You're welcome. It's ok. I dont even have Illustrator yet, but I want to get it someday. That's something I've been interested in learning how to do. You have a lot of good tutorials here!

I'll bet the origami jewelry you are making is beautiful. You have so many options and creative ways to make the jewelry. Thank you for the kind words. I am enjoying making the jewelry and videos. I find that making this kind of jewelry so rewarding!

I think you are right about Froyle Art. I've tried all years with no difficulty, but then again National Geo has been around forever. Due to the mess I only create these papers in the summer, so I don't know about the temp and humidity. It's a great point to remember. I make a mess and spread my papers all over the backyard in the summer...LOL! Indoor is not an option.

I subscribed to your channel! It's very nice and I enjoyed what I watched. I love what you do.

@@CreativeRiseArt after 1980!

@@sharonQuinnHarmon Yes. I think you're right. I didn't have an exact date. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much. I'm slow but steady...LOL!

Haha. I think you're right about the pink and brown one. It is preference. I wanted it to be brighter...LOL! I used a couple drops of Dawn dish soap in a small container with water. I didn't have any Photoflow. I've never used it, but I would love to hear about your experience with it. I've not heard of methylcellulose either. Is it the same as the Carrageenan? I have heard of people using this too. There are so many different ways to do these techniques. Look forward to seeing and hearing about your experiences.

@Carry_Your_Message the methyl cellulose is an adhesive that is very safe, flexible, non- toxic, has no oder is archival, etc. It is primarily used in book binding. I am finding that it has a lot of uses for art. It can be used in cooking as well. Maybe I'll make a blog post and video about its uses some day. I'm still learning about it.

@@creativepassages that would be great. I would love to see more about it. Thanks for letting me know

Thank you!

Thank you for the kind words. Sometimes techniques don't come out the first time. Yes, I love Momigami too! Let me know how you like Suminagashi! It's fun too! I appreciate you subscribing to my channel. Thank you!

I’ve heard of using CitroSolv, which I have on my Amazon shopping list. I haven’t heard of using Citronella. What are the directions for using that with NatGeo pages? Tia!

@@judypatterson I'm not sure about the Citronella. I've not heard that either. I used the CitroSolv on my National Geo pages.

Yes, it is so much fun, you'll have to try for sure. You can make all kinds of things from the paper you create. Would love to see what you make. Enjoy!

Thank you so much! I thought I spoke incorrectly. I appreciate the info.

BTW, I have trouble with that word "konnyaku" as well.
