Making Paper


Here we have an interesting way to recycle paper, let´s see!


The materials you need are:

*Used paper (old bills, newspapers, old documents, etc.)
*Water
*A bucket
*A piece  of cloth
*Ruler or knife

First, you have to cut the paper in little pieces (about 1 inch by 1 inch), then dip the pieces of paper on a bucket of water for a couple of hours until they´re soft.

You will notice when the mixture become a pulp, and once you have the paste, strain the liquid from the pan with a piece of cloth. Place a handful of wet pulp on a dry, flat surface. Use your hands or a piece of cloth to flatten the pulp.

Give way to the ends with a knife, a ruler or other hard to create straight edges. Place it in a sunny and safe for more than five hours.

Recycled paper can be used as fixed covers for magazines or for decoration.
