Wonderful ‘recycling’ of natural materials. Love that you used accessible and inexpensive materials. Your tutorial is complete, but not overwhelming. Thank you!
Wow, Peg…awesome tutorial! Your paper came out lovely! And that lace tied around it, finished it off, brilliantly! Thank you for sharing all that you learned over a year of studies! ♥️
I have paper like this years ago. I enjoyed the process. If you put cut up tissue or toilet tissue into the mix it helps bond the fibers. Don't remember the ingredients that ate at work. I gave done them both ways. Your way looks alot easier than the way I did. LOL. TFS 🥰🙏
I am so glad I stumbled across your channel! You are extremely talented and creative. Your videos are wonderfully inspiring and very informative. Thank you for sharing!
It was so wonderful, inspiring and encouraging to see your process for making paper. I loved the elements you incorporated into the pulp and how simple and practical your process was-especially with including and using household items. Your paper turned out so beautifully! Thank you for sharing how you make paper-this is something I’ve wanted to do for quite a while, have “studied up” how to do this and just haven’t had the courage or all of the items needed. Seeing how you make paper helps inspire me-maybe I can do this when I’m able and have the basic materials. Thank you so much for sharing your inspiration and adding some joy to my life.
I’m glad you saw how easy this process can be! I’ll be doing some more with different colors to create different papers! I try to keep my tutorials simple as I don’t think we need to over complicate to make artful items!
That was awesome. I wondered for those who live in the city, could we use the four holder drink carriers from fast food restaurants instead of plant material? Do you think that would work?
That's a great idea! I would definitely soak it for 24 hours prior to using but I would think anything with a paper base would work!! Junk mail works for recycling paper as well!
I will use it as collage pieces, inserts in a journal or perhaps write on it in asemic writing with India Ink and a calligraphy brush. Stay tuned and I’ll use it in a project soon to share how it can be used! Great question!!! 💕
The finished paper is really organic and pretty. I can see how these sheets could be used in many ways. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much 😊 I’m gearing up for a grungy, organic project and am using my prompts to create some of the pieces!

Thank you Anne! I love to use items from my yard, cleaned up my landscape and am getting some paper to use in collage as a bonus😂!

Thank you….I’ve purchased quite a few books on natural colors and paper making--now is the time to start experimenting! So happy you are watching!
Thank you !!❤
You are so welcome-thanks for watching!
Easy thanks for your help. Very instructive video. Easy to follow. "Stay Simple"😊
Glad it was helpful! I’m a simple gal doing simple things😂.

I’m getting ready to do a whiter paper, I’ll be sure to add some tissue and toilet paper…I understand why those two would break into the pulp easier!
Great video! You male it look easy!
That is my hope-it IS much easier than it sounds and I’m hopeful I’ve encouraged someone to give it a try!
I am so glad I stumbled across your channel! You are extremely talented and creative. Your videos are wonderfully inspiring and very informative. Thank you for sharing!
I agree wholeheartedly
Thank you both!!! I do my best to share what I learn-love doing this and it is so rewarding to have people enjoy my content--I appreciate you!

Great video Peg! Wonderful explanation!
Thanks so much! I appreciate you watching and commenting, I’m glad it was helpful!
I have done this before and it was an interesting project. You put together a great video that’s easy to follow.
Thank you! I enjoy making paper-very relaxing and a great scrap buster!
Cool projects..................................😻
Thank you! Love using what’s on hand!😂

Does it need to be dry plant matter? Or can i use leaves i just picked? Thanks :)
I have done both, results were similar!
I think the paper is beautiful but what would you do with it?? Seems far too textured to write on.
