Paper Making

PAPER MAKING PROJECT
With this hands on activity we learned how to make paper. First we dipped our mold into the pulp and had a series of different drying techniques to help speed up the process. Then we used the iron to also help dry it out then left it to finish air drying. I loved the result of the paper after it was dry. With my paper I choose to rip all the edges because of the interesting texture it made. I also experimented with throwing my acrylic inks on my paper. My favorite is how the inks soaked into the paper creating a cool effect. Overall I'm happy with the turn out of my project.
