The first page that has content will contain the materials list:
- Scrap paper
- Photo-frame and net, for making the sieve
- Blender
- Cloth/towel
- Large bowl/tray
There are 5 steps to the 'making your own paper' guide.
Each step will be covered in one double page spread (A5 pages).
There is a pop-up symbol and a short piece of text explaining what needs to be done on each page.
The text will take up half of the left page on each spread.
The text is:
1. TEAR UP SOME SCRAP PAPER INTO SMALL PIECES.
2. PLACE TORN PAPER INTO A BLENDER, ADD WATER AND MIX.
3. POUR THE DISSOLVED PAPER ONTO A SIEVE* AND USE YOUR HANDS/SPONGE TO PRESS THE PULP FLAT.
(There will be a footnote at the bottom of this page in smaller point type explaining how to make the sieve)
* TO MAKE YOUR SIEVE, PLACE A NET OVER A PHOTO FRAME, AND FIX DOWN, MAKING SURE ALL EDGES ARE SEALED SO THE PULP DOES NOT BLEED OUT.
4. COVER THE FRAME WITH A CLOTH, PRESS DOWN INTO ALL EDGES AND CORNERS, THEN TURN THE FRAME OVER.
5. LEAVE TO DRY, AND PEEL OFF YOUR NEW PAPER.
Photos of the pages we have made today will be posted later!
