From the desk of the product designer:

Behind the design

Anyone else make their own paper in elementary art class? Some of us had fond memories of sending cards out of handmade paper, so we wanted to share that experience and make it a canvas for creativity.

    The instructions are easy to follow so my 11 year old daughter could confidently do this on her own

    Easy and fun. We made the journal and then had a Kayaking adventure so we had something to write about. Perfect activity for a long weekend at Gramma’s.

    I liked how she learned how paper was made. She liked that she made little journals to carry around and color in.

    High success rate with this project! Not too complicated for an impatient 8-yo.
