One thing that I always feltReplica Handbags was left out of most books on the topic of Origami, was how to make paper. It is easy enough to buy paper, but honestly the process of creating it from scrap paper is very fun, and can be messy. Since I'm always game to make a mess, I thought we could go through this activity together. You will need some scrap paper, two bowls (or trays, or buckets), a paper deckle (which I made out of scrap material), and some cloth scraps a little bigger than the deckle. Oh yeah, and a blender.
First step is to get some scrap paperReplica Louis Vuitton together. Just go digging through your recycling bin, or your newspaper stack, or your old bills, certificates, deeds, proof of insurance. Anything paper that you would like to turn into more paper. Tear it into little pieces, you may want to use a paper shredder, scissors, or a Maggie Magpie. Take the little scraps and soak them in a bowl or bucket or warm water overnight. This is going to loosen up the fibers of the paper, so the blender can do it's job.
You should get a paper deckle. A smartLouis Vuitton handbags person would go to the craft store and buy one, a crafty person will take some scrap screen door, and some wood and staple gun one together. The deckle consists of two parts, a screen and a frame. Take a rectangle (this will be the size of your paper) of the screen material, and build a wooden frame to staple it onto. The build a second frame, with a little height, that will fit on top of the screen, but is removable. You will hold them both together in the pulp, and the top frame will be used to stop the pulp from flowing over the sides. Once the water is drained, you'll remove the top frame and place the screen flat on the transfer cloth. So, make one, buy one, borrow one, you'll need it.
In the morning, bright andGucci handbags early (since I bet you couldn't sleep knowing that there was paper to be made), pull out the blender, the scraps of cloth, and the bucket of paper. Drain the water from the wet paper (I used the paper deckle for this, but a sieve would work great, even a colander), and squish it in your hands into balls. Put a small ball into the blender, and then almost fill it up with warm water. Put the lid on (trust me), and blend. A sharp blade will help, but patience is the real key. It should look like a fruit smoothie when it is done. Blend until there are no clumps of paper.
Dump this pulpy mixture onto aPrada Handbagsscreen (once again, I used the paper deckle), and rub it back and forth to drain the water (don't do this on your lap, use a bowl to drain into), until the mixture gets solid enough to grab. Squeeze and squeeze and get all the water you can out of this mixture. Repeat this until all of your wet paper is now soggy pulp.Get all of your pieces of cloth wet. Lay some newspaper down, and put one wet piece of clothe on top of it.
