I had a great time on Saturday at the Art Thorn markets, there is always a great atmosphere with lovely home-cooked food and live music!
I am always working hard to improve how my products are displayed, and this month’s table features hand-written signs made from home-made recycled paper!
It’s really easy to make your own paper at home. All you need is a blender, a bucket, and something with which to drain and press the paper pulp! At this time of year there is a huge increase in junk mail, so it’s the perfect time to recycle all this extra paper into something useful!
The paper took a few days to dry out completely. Next time I hope to experiment with colour and added dried flower petals!
