I love homemade paper, but never made it because I didn't have the tools, but, I guess, now I do. Thanks, Dierdre. Oh, and I thought the bologna one was beautiful. 😂 😂 You crack me up, girl.
So easy!! I love making it will be doing some with spring flowers soon!
My incredibly crafty mom that is no longer with us used to make paper a lot, I was really young. This takes me back! Now I will try with my incredibly crafty 7 year old that will love this, thank you!!!!🥰
What great memories!! Glad you enjoyed
That’s so sweet. How did she make it when you were growing up?
@@SoulChild702 in a blender with water to create the pulp and then poured on to a screen to drain and dry 🥰
Simple and effective! Similar to hers. Thanks for sharing!
Just had another idea. Adding flowers onto the paper. Or bits of grasses. To give texture , my minds working overtime cant wait to have a play ♻️
Love that!
I love this! I was just thinking about making some paper from my kindergarten class' seatwork papers, adding flower seeds, and making little cards for their parents. They can plant the cards afterwards.
Great ideas!! Thanks for watching Beverly
I did it. It worked. They loved it.
Actually the segment in art class was my favorite my art teacher Mrs Cunningham she said we could use anything I had horses at the time and you can imagine what I used and yes I got a A+ and no it did not smell but talk about amazing paper I have always loved paper making because of that class!
Unbelievable!
What!!! that is amazing... I am going to be experimenting lots more with this technique. Thanks for watching Elisabeth
@@OurUpcycledLife my teacher let us use a little bit of real paper and cut up pieces of cloth not a lot and then I probably used in a blender a big blender which I know you don't have two cups of dried road apples and I filled the top of the blender with water and blitzed we made mesh screens like a silkscreen you can get those at hobby lobby and poured it out squished it out like you showed and let it dry overnight it was very pretty if I had access to horses like I did then I would be making more!
I love this. You have made this so much easier than any of the other tutorials I have seen, and the finished paper looks even better!!!! Thank you so much for sharing. 😀
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching! Karen

Another awesome video! I made my own paper years ago and seems like I added a teaspoon of cornstarch in the blender. I also poured some of the pulp into a star cookie cutter. They made nice ornaments for the Christmas tree - or for packages. Thanks for sharing!
Hmmm cornstarch ? I will have to look into that! So much fun. Thanks for watching!
The cornstarch Mb acting as a binder
Love this!!so easy n explained in a v simple manner unlike other videos I have seen Thk u!
Your welcome 🤗
i love it very interesting am going to try
Thanks for watching! Have fun :)
My 18 yr old son is looking to make Christmas gift for his new girlfriend. She loves stationary so I thought he could make his own paper, put it in a handmade journal with her initials on it. He loves the idea. Can't wait to see how it turns out. I suggest maybe some to put dried flowers in them
Oh what a great idea!!! Love it 🎄
How exciting and fun!
Thanks for watching Diana
love your video. May I suggest a mic? You can generally get them pretty cheaply.
Thank you for sharing this. I’m excited to try it.
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching Teresa

Have fun! Thanks for watching! Tracy

Arent those smoothy makers just small blenders? I have the big 3 blade ninja im going to use and i cant wait. This is after i get done making my pajama pants.. woohoo oh i might make a cool pattern on my paper. Now this will be so cool in a junk journal. I have done this before....like 1998. Lol so i need a refresher for sure. Thank you so much. Oh your paper is so pretty. And thinner than anything i made. I love it qnd your channel
Glad you enjoyed
You gave a great idea, by using the crafting paper😁 I have several books of craft paper that I don’t like the color or the patterns but this could make great paper. ☝️I just need an idea what I could do with it in home decor 👍👏🏻
Yes will work fabulous! Thanks for watching Irene
Amazing! I once worked with a teacher who drove to all the laundromats to collect their dryer lint to make paper. She kept lint colors separated and made beautiful cards with her special needs students. P.S. I wonder if shaped cookie cutters could be used in shaping the paper before it dries. 🤔
Beautiful! I am sure cookie cutters would work great! Thanks for watching Sandy
You should slways soak your paper scraps for at least 2-4 hours before blending or pounding it.
Very well explained process. Thanks for sharing the video. I'm not sure if I'm going to try this out now. Maybe in some years, when I'll be retired.
Can you tell something more about the instrument you made the tags with?
Thanks for watching! It is a paper punch I purchased ages ago.
Nice.
Thanks for watching!
I love how these turned out and was wondering how hard it would be to add seeds to the paper. I recently purchased some cards with seeds embedded in them and they were very expensive. I think I would like to try this and add the seeds, I’m just not sure at what point would you add them?
I love adding seeds! Thanks for watching Rhonda
Hi, I would like the link for your tag cutter please
I actually have had that tag cutter for a very long time and I’m not sure where it would be available
I love your videos but did you use a wet sponge
I used a dry sponge but get wet very quickly and I squeeze it ok into dish. Thanks for watching Linda!
It was still too wet when you flipped it onto the fabric. I learnt about that fact from another RUclipsr who makes her own paper.

"Here's how to make paper"
Ingredients: Paper
It is impossible that such geniuses exist. 😵💫
All that work for a tiny bit of paper? A pack of A4 costs about 5$ and thats about 300-500 beautiful, big, clean sheets.
I have the whole paper making set up and it is fun to make paper. Use, dried crumbled up flowers or fresh, grass clippings, just about anything. I also love the imperfect edges it makes. Great job.
Great ideas!! Thanks for watching Donna
I’m always amazed at your processes and love them. Another new one I will now attempt! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks for watching Maureen
can you add flower petals?
Very cool!, I’m going to have to try this, tyfs 🤗
Thanks for watching Wendy
Me and the kiddos are gonna be doing this thank you for the tutorial and the awesome little tips.
Have fun!
I used to make this when my oldest was younger. We used to add coloured threads and the foil from butter into our paper. I used to use my old splatter screen too! Sometimes I would take the bottom off a coffee tin, place it on my screen and pour the slurry through the tin to make the paper I into a circle then add dried flowers after sponging while it was still wet. They were so pretty embedded into the paper. I also put flower seeds in to the paper and added to cards with instructions on how to plant the “seed” paper to grow flowers! So much fun! I think it’s time to do it again, I love the idea of using it for tags! Love your channel I’m a very faithful subscriber and watch all your videos so much inspiration! Thanks Deidre.
So many possibilities and fun!! Thanks for watching!
Most people don't like the smell of the black liquor, but the paper has to be that way if you want it to be absolutely perfect. With the right binding agents you maybe can even make it like printer paper which is next level.
Great tip
I am always amazed with all your Diys. This is one I want to try.
So fun! Thanks for watching Shawn
After turning the screen over onto the old tshirt, use the sponge to draw out more moisture. That way the paper will adhere to the cloth and you don’t have to use your hands to remove it and tear it when it’s fragile.
Great tip
I use brown/green packing paper to wrap my Christmas gifts. Once You use your “tools” for craft should not use for food again, lost of nasty chemical in paper. Making paper is fun
Yes exactly! This was a old one I had not used in forever. Not just a craft room tool :)
Love it! So easy and simple to do.
Save your scrap paper!!
Can't wait to try excellent instruction.
Have fun!
This is so cool.
Thanks 😊
Can goldleaf be put in recycle paper?
I would think so
Cool good job!!
Thanks!
🤘🏼
Thanks for watching Allie
This would be fun with the kids. What about putting it in the oven on warm to dehydrate the water? Maybe on a cookie sheet? That was my first thought before you showed how you strained them.
You could maybe speed up the process a bit by last step adding to oven on very low!
Thank you for the reminder that I can utilize my paper scraps more efficiently.
Yes and they turn out so beautiful Beverly
You are so talented! I would love to see you do a dried flower arrangement on your beautiful paper and frame it.
Oh wouldn't that be beautiful!! Thanks for watching!
This looks like so much fun! Love getting messy 😁💜🖤💜
Thanks for watching! Works great
I love this idea just wondering if you could add flower seeds to the paper while its drying and then it could be planted , make a card with a little seed label so its a gift as well , will have to experiment but thanks for the idea 👍
Yes, absolutely
