Takes time but isn't hard 18 months ago

I was waiting for something the other day…oh yes, for the thunderstorm to go away so that I could go out. My wrists hurt from doing too much knitting and typing so I wanted a couple days off. I decided that making the paper would do the trick.

I produced 5 sheets of aqua colored paper. I could probably have made a 6th one, but I saved the pulp to use in the future. It was easy and I was pleased with the results. I’ll be doing this again, and then I need to figure out what to make out of the paper itself. Another day.

It worked well here in this place because I have a nice deep, big kitchen sink that worked perfectly. The sink in SLC is too small for the paper making frame. Anyway, out here is my craft making place. I think I will just confine myself to knitting in the city and doing everything else here.



Going to take this to the country too 19 months ago

I’m going to take my equipment to the country and hope I get this done over the summer. I have a better sink there anyway plus time!



I have all the equipment 2 years ago

I just need to have a go at it.
