00:00Hi everyone and nice to meet all of you and today we are going to make papers with recycled paper.

00:09Basically this is the base of making any sort of handmade papers. It's very simple

00:17and you can do it at home and you can make it with everything, with like recycled paper,

00:23with like junk mail, with I keep even like a shopping receipt. I collect them and then you

00:29know just basically there is a very good recycling and you can do a lot after that. You can do

00:37hand print making on those, you can make your own cards or you can use for your art or craft. So

00:45now I'm going to start. First of all we shredded some papers, recycled papers that you can see

00:53here and so just like for around 10 minutes I soaked them in water. So what you do is just put

01:00some papers in blender and add some water like you are making some sort of shake.

01:14You need a big top or container to put all your pulp in there and mix with water because later

01:26we are going to make paper with those. But make sure whenever you are making your pulp you shouldn't

01:30blend for too long, you shouldn't make it too fine. So we have here one screen and one frame,

01:38we call them decal and mold. So you should put them together and then like go straight.

01:57And when you put your paper slowly you have to

02:00move it side to side that helps the water to drain.

02:08Okay while we are waiting so you can clean the frame.
