Paper started out as a cutting edge invention. During the Han Dynasty, Cai Lun came up with the idea of beating materials into a pulp that would hold together well in sheets. 

Something once hard to come by is now available all around us: maybe too much! So let’s give some of it a second life.

Learn how to reuse old paper scraps to make your own paper. The unique paper you’ll create is perfect for cards, labels, letters to people you care about: really any time you need or want unique, "fancy" paper. 

No experience necessary, and all materials provided (though if you have paper scraps you want to reuse, this is the perfect time)!
