Product Description
From Amazon
One of the measures of a good how-to book, in my mind, is when it covers a topic in which I have little interest or experience, and it gets me excited enough to think about trying the project! This elegant little book is beautifully illustrated with drawings and photographs, and the easy-to-understand instructions make this a good introduction to papermaking. I think I can actually do this!
Book Description
A comprehensive introduction to paper-making, paper crafts, and paper art. Clear instructions are given on how to make a wide variety of interesting and unusual papers, plus preparing a writing surface, coloring and texturing, making paper from plants, paper craft techniques, marbling, embossing, and laminating.

Easy and Practical!!, Aug 15 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Making Your Own Paper (Paperback)
I had a summer design class and since the class was so condensed, we designed and constructed projects on a daily basis. For my final project, I had to construct a book. I only had 2 days to do it and since I knew I wanted to make my own papers, I needed some direction. I used this wonderful book and not only did it have very clear directions with concise illustrations, the supplies needed were on a very practical level. That means I didn't have to purchase extra supplies I probably would never use again. My book turned out so beautiful, I got an A+! I now make papers as a hobby and I owe it all to this great book.

Making Your Own Paper really works!, Mar 30 2000
By Gale Perrigo - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Making Your Own Paper (Paperback)
I loved this book! I am a calligrapher and amateur bookmaker, and found this to be a valuable addition to my library. The pictures and text instructions are clear, and the projects were interesting and fun. Projects included cards, gift boxes, and mobiles, as well as some more advanced craft techniques. The author focuses on easy-to-obtain equipment and materials, making this a good choice for beginners like me. I also found it a good volume for sparking my brain when my creativity flagged.
