@@LouiseJannetta that's for sure but like you said you get very interesting results, and like nuno felting you're never sure how the end result will turn out, well you sort of know but things move around sometimes good and sometimes not, but always an adventure.😄🧡
Thank you very much for your lovely comments. I can't take credit for being a beautiful human being, as we all have our faults, but I am delighted that you are enjoying the art and the teaching. I love the chance to share and experiment and the drive to find exciting and hopefully new ideas to share. I get so much helpful feedback too allowing us all to progress together X many thanks for watching. All the very best, Lou 😀
Wow! I absolutely love this! You're anything, but impatient!! This is very inspiring, and I want to work my way up to this! I love your homemade papers! Thanks for the tutorial!!!
Gorgeous. I worry tho about my arthritic hands and trigger fingers if I dare try this. I can’t imagine 30 minutes, then 30 min, then repeat. And there’s the investment of the papers in various colors, the bamboo mats and more. But I love the results. Very nice series.
Goodness gracious Louise! What a huge amount of work and time this requires. You have an admirable commitment to exploring your process. It’s quite inspirational to see what you are creating. I love this paper but there’s no way my old arthritic hands would tolerate this process! But I adore the results.
Hi Ellie, thank you for the lovely comments. It is a bit of a commitment. However, I always think the journey is as good if not better than the destination. Sorry that your hands can't cope with this, but there are so many collage and paper-making techniques that do not strain your hands. Have you seen my Between the Lines Artists Journal? These are loads of collage techniques that might inspire. The video is titled - Handmade Artist's Journal Art Book - inspired by the Japanese art of Momigami & Korean art of Joomchi, and the link is ruclips.net/video/PXxr3gClHpA/видео.html 😀
This is so labor intensive! The results are incredibly organic and beautiful. I particularly liked the vibrant colors at the end of the video. You are a genius. Thanks for sharing this amazing technique.
Glad you enjoyed it! And yes, it is a labour of love with lovely results though X. The papers you see at the end are still wet, so the colours are more intense. I used papers that were dyed with colour that bled when water was added, but I am sure you can even paint mulberry paper in a thin acrylic that would not be water soluble and so would keep its vibrancy. XXX😀
Louise terrific results . Am patiently waiting a delivery of mulberry paper . You certainly went for it with those big pieces of paper . Would you add paint to brighten the finished piece ? I intend to involve my Husband in some of that rolling .
Hi Sue. The results were not quite what I had in mind, but I am just beginning to get to grips with all the possibilities this technique offers. I always wait a week or so before judging as I forget my expectations and start to see the piece for what it actually is. I think the main consideration would be the colours that I use, as the dyes definitely run in the process. Or I would get white mulberry paper and apply colour with acrylics. When these dry, they are permanent and won't bleed.😀 The other issue would be how roughly I felted. I would use bubble wrap and wrap the whole lot around a sturdy tube to give some resistance to the rolling. Good luck with your papers, and look forward to seeing the results. X
Thank you, Sandie. This wasn't easy, but I think perhaps use more layers of paper for the backing paper and Joomchi in a gentler fashion. Hope you get the chance to give it a go. X Thank you for your support X😃

Wonderful result and the rest are all beautiful pieces too! I appreciate watching your creative journey and hearing your comments about the process. Your impatience is much more effective than my patience so as they say, you go girl 😊
Thank you! Cheers! Glad you are getting something from all this. I will find my way of getting the papers felted as I love the results. I hope you get a chance to have a good go X😃
Thank you, and so glad you like them; much appreciated. I will frame some of the Jomchied pieces as I like them as they are. I will use others to cover books and make pressies, eg. bookmarks, cover boxes, little journals and wallets. Eventually, I fancy making 3D abstract sculptures, I suppose it is only limited by my imagination. Thanks for watching, and hope you enjoy the process XX😃
Hi Yolande. I use mulberry paper again; it's all mulberry paper in this video. It is the only paper with properties that allow it to be felted.😃🍀 I have also set up a Facebook group for those who subscribe to my RUclips channel.

Hi Louise, love the outcome, it is stunningly beautiful, you would have got a good workout from all that rolling. You are really inspiring me to get experimental with papers and I'd love to have a go at Joomchi. Does it only work with mulberry paper or can it be done with another type of paper? It's hard to get hold of mulberry paper in Australia and expensive. I thought the use of the blind was brilliant, you are very resourceful.
Hi Leigh. Thanks so much 😊 It only works with mulberry paper, but you can momigami and crumple other papers with fantastic results. The long fibres, typical of mulberry papers, are what cause the papers to felt and adhere to each other. The other thing is when papers dissolve and their pulp breaks down, this can be recombined with other papers, but it isn't felting. Hope this helps. And yes, the papers are handmade and are a little expensive. I suggest using smaller sheets to get used to the process. I got my first lot from China - www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1142287054/pure-mulberry-paper-natural-colour?ref=yr_purchases But you can order packs of A4 multi-coloured sheets from sites on Etsy. Good Luck XX🍀😃😃
Hi and thanks for watching. So glad it's driving your creativity xxx. I am pretty sure mine were or are 45 GSM. I reckon you need 5 to 7 layers xxx Good luck xxx
Hi. In this process you don't use glue. The idea is for the papers to felt together. Mulberry paper is made with long filaments that can felt or bond between the layers when agitated. X
Hello! I am a textile artist, I work with felt. You have a beautiful result, however I think it is too much effort. I would like to suggest you replace the bamboo mat with a woven plastic mesh. Look for a tightly woven mesh, you will see that it reduces the felting time and effort. Greetings!!!

You have loads of TASTE and PASSION!!! They are your secret superpowers: I will follow you!!!!!😍🥰🤩😍🥰🤩
Lovely comment, many thanks and welcome X😊
Impatient yes BUT so inspirational. I admire your courage and hard work 👐👐👐
Thank you! 🤗
Wow you need lots of patience to do this, they look beautiful 😍
Yep, a labour of love. I am looking into other ways of achieving this effect, but the strength of the mulberry papers could be very advantageous. X😀
It's very much like nano felting, very labour intensive. Thank you again.
Yep it is a labour of love x
@@LouiseJannetta that's for sure but like you said you get very interesting results, and like nuno felting you're never sure how the end result will turn out, well you sort of know but things move around sometimes good and sometimes not, but always an adventure.😄🧡
Wow,I do find it all beautiful
This is just the start there is loads more techniques to try with this. Xxx
Love them for what they are! The subtle transitions and desaturated hues are sublime. I love the organic raggedness. Your work is stunning.
Thank you so much! Yep, I am loving this lovely process. Labour-intensive but fabulous results. Many thanks for watching. All the very best, Louise😀
You are fantastic as an artist, teacher and you come across as a beautiful human being . I am just starting and dreaming about it

Wonderful! Go for it, enjoy. X

Thank you for watching, glad it is of some use, Enjoy XX
I see how how your "hands work" and I just think "ouch"! Incredible results. Thanks!
Hope you get a chance to give it a go xxx
Kudos…
This is a fab technique takes time but the results are lovely. I hope you enjoy x

All very true. It is a labour of love. X
It’s very beautiful 😍
Many thanks, hard work but worth it XX😀
I’m fascinated with this process! I have a big love of paper and art made with it. Thank you for sharing this wonderful organic journey!
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching and enjoy yourself. XX😀

The final piece is fantastic but I think I am too impatient and I don’t have strong hands. I suspect some glue would be utilized. 😊
Hi Sherry, it is hard work, and I would certainly use glue on the occasions that purism wasn't necessary X😀

I'm enjoying this series so much. Do you think that 45 gsm Hanji paper would be too thick to use for Joomchi?

Just a bit of humor, the beige stringy thing, looked like an old brassier,(spelling for a bra).
He he he, yep certainly like one of my old ones ---- too comfy to get rid x
