We have gathered botanical materials from prairie fields and gardens.

These have been packaged in 3 x 4" bags as shown here and are available for $1.50 each or 5 packages for $5.00.

A tiny bit of these materials can be added to your handmade paper pulp just before putting the pulp into the frame.

We will also be packaging pressed flowers and ferns that can be added to your paper for interesting effects.

Puchase Handmade Paper



I recently received an email from an Australian zoo worker which I would like to share:

I have to share with you a great additive to paper… I have the luxury of working in a zoo (in Australia) and so many interesting things come our way as education officers.

On a recent paper making spree with kids in a school holiday program we pre-boiled Rhinoceros Poo and added this to our pulp!

The result was a great texture and a great story as we later played bocce (bowls) with the balls of dried poo right next to the rhino enclosure.


As you can see, almost anything can be added to your paper. Your only limitation is your imagination - but I don't think that I will be able to supply the rhino poo!
