Paper, Paper, Paper!

Today was the day I decided to update my blog and let's just say I'm excited for this one! A few days ago I was finishing of my top hat template and I decided to make some paper so I made the pulp and when I used the mesh template for an A4 sheet of paper and thought 'Great.... It's way too thick' so I re-pulped it and it was still too thick but i still used it and the outcome was pretty good! It was probably the first time I have made clean white paper!

So after that batch of white paper was clean I moved onto making more paper but dying it with some sort of dye so I asked a few people and they said to just spray/splatter on some Batik Dye and so I did with the colours pink, blue and yellow but you had to do this when the paper was still wet and all I can say was... Oh My God! The ink spread all over the paper but the extra thing I liked about the ink was that there was only a few bits of white paper showing through. After that bundle of fun I certainly will be make more paper like that!
