Homemade recycled paper || homemade paper decoration

The word paper derived from word 'Papyrus' , this plant which was used as writing material in ancient Egypt. In 105 AD , paper was first invented by Cai lun of the eastern han dynasty in china and he made paper from rags of clothes , mulberry trees and other plants. He mashed it to make a pulp out of it then stirred with water . Fiber sheet came out then dried it in sunlight.Now it is made up of wood so it is now cheaper and more convenient. The thinness and quality of paper became better over time. Now paper is being used not only in literacy but in currency , cleaning , decorating , packaging etc. We should recycle and reuse paper because it is not only beneficial for environment but also we can save money from it. 

so let's make recycled paper from used paper. You can use any paper like newspaper , toilet paper , notebook and even money but I'll save it to buy my favorite food from it. It is very easy to make it so just follow some steps..

1. Tear the paper into smaller pieces

       2. Soak them in the water for 5 to 6 hours.

3. If you like then Mix any food coloring with soaked paper and blend it to make a pulp out of it.

 

 

4.  Take a container filled with water and then mix it with paper pulp

 

 

5. Dip mold straight and then sink it while slightly sliding and if you don't have mold then you can simply use sieve which is easily available at your home.

7. Now take that mold or sieve out from the container and let it dry for sometime.

8. Turn the sieve upside down to put the paper sheet on a cotton cloth and use cotton clothe only so paper fiber won't stick to it and let it dry for half an hour.

          9 Fold that cotton cloth                                    

                                                 

 

  9 Final step is to Iron it to make pa straight.

 

 and papers are ready..
