Our next workshop at the Columbiana Public Library is scheduled for August 15, 2024 and we'll be making a hand-bound blank journal that we'll be using for the base of future free projects.
We will have a variety of papers available for you to use, but if you'd like to bring some of your own recycled paper here's a list of suggestions:
- Greeting cards
- Ledger paper
- Copy/printer paper
- Cardstock
- Scrapbook paper
- Magazine pages
- Larger index cards
- Packing paper
- Parchment paper
- Vellum
- Watercolor paper
- Envelopes (junk mail return envelopes are great & we'll be using them in other projects)
- Notebook paper
- Book pages
- Coloring books
- Junk mail
- Maps
If it's paper, you can probably use it. Almost any size will work, it just needs to be big enough to fold and bind together. It's best if it's not too brittle or flimsy. (But don't throw that away, we can use it in other projects, too).
Does it need to be blank? No
Does it need to be new? No (just no food residue)
If you have questions, leave them in the comments below.
