I make all of the papers by hand in Ottawa, Canada. Marbled papers are traditionally used as endpapers for bookbinding, but they have a wide range of other uses such as collage, origami, scrap-booking, greeting cards, framing, box-making, and other paper crafts.

Although paper umbrellas were traditionally made in several areas of Japan, Kanazawa was well known for its paper crafts. This oiled paper umbrella is an excellent example of the painstaking craftsmanship that used to go into something simply designed to keep ourselves dry.
We have been learning about blogging and how blogs work. To understand how blogs work, we made paper blogs. Students wrote their first blog post on paper. They glued their post to a poster and decorated it to make it look like a blog. Then we hung them around the room. Armed with pencils and sticky notes we all moved around the room reading each other's blogs and writing comments on the sticky notes. We stuck the sticky notes to the blogs. This idea comes from Karen McMillan. You can read about it at: www.notesfrommcteach.com/2010/09/learning-to-blog-using-p...
This is for a group i belong to, The paper crane project, the idea is that liz will send 1000 origami cranes all around the world and then for the people who receive them to post their pics to the group and send a copy to liz in america.....she is working hard to fold all those bits of paper and send them out to everyone!
At the observatory near the top of Taipei 101, they were having an exhibit of Chinese Paper Lantern art - some pieces moved and the lights changed, creating different colors and neat effects.
Layers has been chosen as today's topic for the Our Daily Challenge group.
I make notes about my photos every day. I cut sheets of A4 paper in half lengthways and keep them beside my computer keyboard.
This is the paper mill in Covington Va. Got this on my way home after an exhausting trip.
Felt like even though this is industrial its different, with all the colorful lights and smoke.

People who love paper are called Papyrophiliacs. That means the love of paper. This describes me for sure. I wish all paper was made of HEMP, not trees. We need the trees to keep our air clean. There is no reason why HEMP can't be used for all our paper needs. During WW2 it was mandatory for farmers to grow hemp, now they won't allow it because of misinformation. Canada grows it extensively, there's no reason not to grow it in the USA for paper products. Hemp grows very fast and in Canada is very low in THC, but more over, it being used to make paper products is much more sustainable than killing trees needlessly.
The head and torso are made from a jig saw puzzle piece. I altered the doll with paint, paper, yarn and ribbons.

I thought a paper plane in flight would be great for this challenge. Special thanks to Sheila for being the pilot of my plane.
Day 117: Paper
This paper circle garland was the easiest, quickest decoration... about 15 minutes of punching circles, and about 10 minutes of sewing to string them all randomly together. I love how cheery it looks, and the best part is, if you can borrow a circle punch, it can be done with scrap papers you have lying around the house. When forced to decorate on the cheap, you can still come up with some nifty stuff.
I got this idea and directions from School for Us.
Put shaving cream on a baking sheet. Spread it out.Add drops of food coloring and smear around with toothpicks or forks. Place a piece of paper on top and press down. Lift up paper and scrape off shaving cream with a spatula. Then wipe clean with a cloth or paper towels. Paper dries fast!
