Transform plants into Paper!

In this workshop we will make beautiful handmade paper with natural plant fibers and recycled paper. Explore a variety of plants grown in Hawaii that produce fiber used in papermaking. Each step in the process of turning fiber into paper will be covered: havesting, beating, cooking, blending and sheet formation…from “seed to shee.” We will create paper coverng a variety of design techniques embedding materials such as dried flowers, seeds, thread, and also explore the creation of three-dimensional forms.
