Recycled Paper

Yesterday I made recycled paper with my sister and mum with old scrap paper we were not using. This took a while because the drying process usually takes a day but we shortened it by using a blow drying it. I enjoyed making it because it was up cycling and it was lots of fun. I found it tricky to not make it crack because we did not compact it enough.  So next time we do it we will compact it more. Here is a slide on the instructions:

    Dia dhuit Kylah,
    Your instructions are very clear - well done. I have cardboard frames already so I found your tip of reusing photo frames very useful in case I need to make some and don't have my frames with me.
    I have made recycled paper a lot of times. Sometimes I put seeds of wild flowers onto the paper after it has been compressed and is still wet. Then I make a card for someone when my paper has dried. Once they have read my card they put it in the garden and wait for the flowers to grow.
    Mā te wā,
    Mrs Naden
