Just did this today and I have some things to say that might help others who want to do this: I couldn't use a blender so I used an electric mixer instead! It also makes smooth pulp, just mix it for a while. I couldn't use the blender because we needed it for food, so using the electric mixer really helped since it's just easy to wash. For some reason my paper wouldn't stick to the cloth after I use the sponge on my deckle 😭 instead I just put the cloth directly on top of the paper then used the sponge on the cloth, it did stuck on the cloth so things worked out in the end. Hopefully this was helpful to anyone having the same problems! Thank you so much for this tutorial 🥺💓

@@ann3onymous900 Yes....... But as dreamer b said above I also experienced difficulty releasing it from the dekel on to the cloth. So I used a an annoyingly slower method of putting the dekel on a hot plate with the wet paper for approx 15-20 minutes to boil off in evaporation a lot of the excess water in the sheet before I could even attempt to peel off the sheet with a dough scraper from the dekel.
i love how she said “and if u don’t have this, u can use these things instead” for EVERY part of the video so it’s as accessible as she can think of 🥺

This just made me realise how valuable paper is - we take it for granted, draw a few scribbles and rip out a whole page to throw away. Experiencing the real effort of making paper from scratch is a whole new perspective and I'm so grateful for coming across to the video!

Nice!
My girlfriend absolutely loves hand written love letters, this year is our first valentines day and so I went and did my research and found this video, and decided to not only write her a love letter, but to do it on paper I made myself, I followed your excellent instructions, and I had everything I needed already on hand so the whole thing cost me $0.00, I used some scraps of a screen door screen as the strainer for my mould, built the frame for my mould and deckle out of scrap wood I already had, and it came out sooo perfectly. She was in AWE! We sat down at the restaurant and she cried when she read my card, but then after she read the letter, I told her that I actually made the paper, and her mind was blown. Thank you for this amazing instructional video, I absolutely loved it, and it was sooooooo fun to make. I soaked the shredded paper the night before, and then made the paper the same day as I gave her the card, drying the paper out in the sun really helped accelerate the process. I also simultaneously dried a couple test sheets in the oven on convection at about 150 degrees F, but the outdoors with the sun actually worked faster believe it or not. I finished the paper by ironing it gently to make it extra flat, and then used some fine sandpaper and lightly sanded the paper to make it extra smooth, but while still retaining the texture. The cloth I used was a duck canvas, and it imparted a gorgeous texture, and the paper absorbed my pen ink wonderfully. It all worked out so well, and you explained everything so its completely idiot proof, which I appreciate! Cheers!!!
If you use a metal mesh, you can make your own "watermark" by threading something through the mesh. And when you have all the wet paper, you can stack them under the press on the cloth. This will remove a lot of water and will make both sides a little "flatter". Nice vid! Thnx for sharing!

Did this with my 6 year old today!! He LOVED it!! Follow her directions and it works perfectly. Don’t be afraid to use your sponge! It’s essential to get the water out and dry it up. With the heat today, paper dried out on our driveway in about an hour!! THANK YOU for this video!! Great job!!
I have learned to do these since very young age. There is a paper factory very very near my house which was also my playground so I also helped some workers there sometime

Literally the perfect tutorial, it gives the exact amount of information needed, it's clear, it's understandable, it's enjoyable, well made, and is just awesome! Amazing video!!!!!!
planning on making a custom journal using this process for my boyfriend’s birthday (: !! thank you so much for sharing and allowing me to make this event special for him ♥️♥️
This is a very good video and I particularly like the fact that apart from the container and deckle and mould, you don't 'prescribe' equipment that needs to be specially bought new. Papermaking needs to be as sustainable as possible and not a reason to acquire new forms of plastic. I also like the fact that you don't use an iron, though I am very envious of the book press. Still, as you say a pile of books will work and they serve me well.
I've been making paper for over twenty years and this is probably the best beginner tutorial I've ever seen :)
"it's a very forgiving craft." that... that touched my heart for some reason
This is so amazing! She even told us a lot of alternatives if we don't have the other tools. I love to do recycling, especially paper since I use it a lot. Thank you😭💗. I want to try it as soon as possible.

Fantastically explained. Love the process and you well thought out system. The book press has inspired me to make my own. Thanks so much for sharing as you have obviously spent a lot of time perfecting this. I do a lot of different Art forms but have been thinking of making my own paper so.... XXB
Thank you for the in-depth yet easy to follow video Lisa. Things are so much easier to do when someone like you takes the time to explain with a easy to follow manner 😊
Such an in-depth tutorial! I really appreciate how you gave so many options for each step, and how you commented on the thickness and "speckles" in the paper. Thanks so much!
I love how accessible this video is, thanks for adding captions and timestamps, no music, and giving clear instructions
This is the only video i have come across in my lifetime where it's so beautifully explained every detail of the project, the alternatives, the techniques and the confidence to start again if you mess up. Loved it, love you
This was the most helpful video out of all the ones I watched. I love how you included alternative options for people who don’t have all the stuff.
I just realized that this was actually a project that my older brother for school. And we still have the materials! This is gonna be easy
This is the best tutorial I have come across!! I love how you are so considerate of people who may not have certain materials. I’m so excited to try
This is the nicest looking recycled paper I've seen! I made some paper using other tools (since I don't have a mold and deckle) and it turned out well but it was definitely thick and quite lumpy. I'm looking forward to making a mold and deckle and trying again! Thank you for the video!
I've watched a lot of tutorials on paper making but your's is the best I've seen. Every step was explained clearly. Thank you!
This is so cool! Ty for the instructions. I love that it’s possible to do such a satisfying craft with things that happen to be around the house. So eco friendly too.

Wow thank you for this. I've watched a lot of tutorials on how to make paper out of used papers but by far, this is the most comprehensive. And thank you for showing also the alternatives. Thanks!
Possibly the best tutorial I've ever seen! So informative and there were so many suggestions and alternatives provided as well! Thank you!
That is amazing!!! Brings more love and meaning to each thing that will be written, drawn or painted on each page
You just earned yourself a new subscriber. That was amazing and thank you so much. It's sad to see a lot of papers from my classes and exams and stuff getting thrown away when I could recycle them. Your video is so helpful, so thank you!
This is the best quality recycled papers I saw so far. And I love the narration. It's so positive💕
This is the best paper making tutorial I have ever watched! I have watched alot to start making paper but you made it so easy and simple with all the information you would need to start!
I'm impressed how little print is showing up on the final product from the original typed sheets! Thanks for the very thorough "how to"
This is by far the best and most detailed video I’ve seen on paper making. Thank you so much for sharing. I’m currently at the early stages of a large photographic project, I look forward to sharing with you what I’ve made once complete…. Although I think paper making will remain a part of my practice well beyond this project.
This is amazing! I'm being crafty these past few days, finding any hobby i could do. And as a student, I kinda feel bad to all the waste we create in a year where I have to throw my used papera and some are even blank. This is nice because unlike binding another nb out of blank pages, you can make use of use papers too! The only problem is, the materials.
hey i just really wanna say thank you for giving so many alternatives! craft videos always seem to just mention whatever high-tech machines they have and dont seem to mention alternatives for people who might just be starting out (me) so thank you!
Thank you for sharing! I've wanting to do this with all the paper I have in my house. I like how simple and forgiving your instructions are. Can't wait to start making paper!!
THANK YOU so much for this. You made it easy to follow, easy to do, and-- most importantly-- accessible. I've seen so many crafters these days almost always only showing how to do these things using very specific tools, which they had bought for a very specific purpose. I much prefer when I can use the same 'tools' for multiple crafts because it saves money and space, and is less wasteful in the end. You showed us multiple options to make it as accessible as possible, you didn't push for the 'perfect' method. I especially love how you used old and thrift items while you were at it! It makes so much more sense to do that when making repurposed or recycled items, because that's basically the point! I also like that you were actually recycling something. Other videos I looked at, people were laying out newspaper or the like as a workspace and using FRESH paper to make their recycled paper. It was just silly to watch them do this then toss out the newspaper. Only came out of the woodwork of almost never commenting on KZread just to tell you how great this video is, it's incredibly helpful! Awesome job!

I think YT is spying on my conversations with my colleagues because we were talking about recycling and paper making with my preschoolers for the new school year and your video popped up on my recommended list!!

this is hands down the best home made paper tutorial ive seen!!! ive been making my own for a few weeks now, but watching this tutorial has shown me the flaws in my own technique. so excited to work on todays batch with this new info!!!
Thank you so much for this. Haven't made paper and needed a refresher course. Can't wait to get started.
In theory, couldn't you use a very smooth bed sheet for the mould? It'd still let the water drain out while holding the pulp. Or would it just be an issue of transferring? Just thought of something as I typed this: Binder clips + the smooth fabric + frame for the mold could be a sort of all-in-one. Strain with it, sponge out the water, remove clips and take the sheet off and put a new one on. Thoughts?

Would work, just be prepared to constantly clean the bits. Otherwise a viable process, I did something similar before I made my mould and deckle set :)
Teachers should let kids make this thru out the year and then at the end of the school let all the students sign them
I'm so happy that I found this video!! I've been so curious about paper making, specifically recycled paper, but didn't know where or how to start. Now I am super excited to try!

That paper looks like the kind that romeo would use to write love letters for juliet and I love it
Boil the paper in water or soak it in hot water it will help in getting a smooth pulp in less time.....
I’m gonna say this as seriously as I can. I love you for how you explain things and give alternative. Your page is just awesome. Love it 💕❤️
I love the way you said "it's very forgiving craft" it's feels so soothing because i don't feel confident when it comes to art or craft but after saw this video i feel a bit confident ☺☺☺

I have no idea. I'd just wash and sterilize it afterwards.
Something I was wondering is why it isn't recommended to blend the paper in a blender that is also going to be used for food, and would it still be bad even if it is cleaned well after blending the paper?
@gravydude1957

maybe it has to do with the inks in various forms of paper. I think it's so there is no risk you blend something and make yourself sick even if you think you cleaned it well. I'm just guessing. But you can find used blenders at thrift and 2nd hand stores.
