  • Crayola has a Paper Making Craft kit! Let's unbox and review! Sponsor: Get 67% off or more on the Kove Split Speaker here: koveaudio.com/n... Code NERDE67 (works site wide on any audio product). I also tested a Japanese Paper making craft kit that was the same price. Despite the fact that I thought the Japanese one had a better end-result, I think the crayola one could have been better if the instructions gave us thin paper or a less stiff material. I loved making Homemade paper!

    The best thing to do is run the pulp in the blender with the ingredients, that way it comes out smoother, and more flexible.

    I think the Japanese kit uses a cotton paper base whereas the Crayola uses a recycled paper base, typically when you make paper you let it dry by pressing it then, air dry, some people even stick it to the window. The Crayola kit didn't come with any kind of binder, which is absolutely fine! You can easily make paper at home without any binder. Also, homemade paper made tends to be more brittle, and thicker, so it's not really made to be folded more as an accent for scrapbooks, journals, and cards.

    • @lyllydd

      The crayola kit probably had the binder already added to the pulp. Ira suggested it might be powdered PVA glue.

    So I actually run a tiny home business making handmade paper (recycling various materials) and it's easy to get started by buying things from the dollar store. You can make a "mould and deckle" from photo frames and screen mesh. The problems you had in the video are common for beginners and get better with technique and practice. :)
    I feel like Crayola's kit actually overcomplicated things? But then possibly made it more fun for kids. You definitely made cardboard and not paper though... XD The Japanese kit was also probably different because their traditional paper making technique is so different from the west.
    Handmade paper will always be textured because it's essentially cold-pressed paper (like some watercolour paper) but you can make it smoother by leaving it in its press (mine is two pieces of cheap plywood) to dry or ironing whilst still damp. I think you can do additives like glue or cornstarch but I haven't needed to do that yet.
    Once you find a technique that works for you it's such a soothing activity to do plus being able to make your own paper as a creative? Just... -chef's kiss-

      The op shop photo frame is the exact same way I started. 😆 I add PVA and corn starch to my paper because it not only helps the paper to last longer but also helps to prevent bleeding when written on. There are so many ways to make paper though. I just love how accessible and versatile it is. ❤

    The binding agent is probably a chemically enhanced starch. I use corn starch mixed with PVA glue (1:2 *you may need a little water to help combine the two) which is then mixed with the pulp and water. I soak my shredded paper in a large mixing bowl of warm water for a few hours, pulp it with a stick blender and then pour it into a larger container. I'll then add about 2 cups of the starch/glue mixture and combine it all really well using my hands - gloves recommended. (I find this is the easiest way to work it all through and get rid of any major lumps. The more time spent here means smoother paper later.) This is also the point you'd add colours, scents or other things like flowers or glitter. I then spread the pulpy mixture onto my mesh, place more mesh on top, and feed it through my press. Once it's passed through a few times it goes onto the rack to dry for a few days. I don't take either piece of mesh off until it's completely dry.

    All handmade paper is bumpy and not like what you get in the store. You are literally only using pulp and water, store paper uses a lot more ingredients. I think you guys used way too much pulp, and not enough patience 😂 You guys made a beautiful piece of handmade stationery. After you add the pulp and before you press it that’s when you can add little flowers and blades of grass or whatever flat decorations you want. Handmade/homemade stationery/paper is harder to write on then your lined school paper, but that is the beauty of it! You can see that it was handmade!! Try the crayola again, but go slower, enjoy the process, make sure your pulp is blended up in smaller pieces so it’s not so chunky. Your pulp was way way way to chunky. But you guys did great!! ❤️

      It's not just the ingredients. Paper mills put their damp sheets through a heavy roller press. I also like handmade paper as an element for stuff like making cards or scrapbook layouts - it adds a nice texture, and the feathery torn edges can be gorgeous.

  • @zarry22
    @zarry22 3 ปีที่แล้ว +100

    To be fair to the Crayola one, handmade paper sticking to it's drying surface and being extremely textural are both common papermaking hiccups w/o easy solutions. I used to make paper with my own home-made tools and dry the sheets on a mirror in the sun; they'd tear and stick to the mirror unless I washed it thoroughly every time.

    There are types of paper that don't bend...that's not the kits fault. It's a type of paper and it's a small and thick paper. Lol. So it's not gonna bend. It's also not a smooth pulp...so it's not going to be a super smooth paper.
    And the only reason it didn't peel is because it wasn't fully dry.
    I think it was too much pulp. You might double check if you were supposed to push the pulp down that much when you measured it...that's probably also why it was too hard to turn the wheel.

      Was the premade fiber dried up?
      Or maybe the instructions were badly written so Jackie didn't understand you need to add extra water?
      Did they mess the paper by adding ink on the corners?
      Did they have to take out the mesh before drying?
      Was drying the paper on the oven bad advice from Crayola?
      Did Sika accidentally slightly burn the paper in the oven?

    the kiwico mini notebook kit has great instructions for making paper! if you're curious:
    it gives you thin paper strips, tissue paper, colored cardstock, a jar, a tray and mesh. you shake the paper strips, colored tissue paper, and bits of cardstock together with water. you get a tray (like a baking sheet) with water in it and set the tray they give you that has holes, like the crayola one, in it. put one sheet of mesh on, pour in the paper pulp, and move it around with your hands. set the next sheet of mesh on top and flip the sandwich of mesh and pulp onto a paper towel. put another on top and roll it with the jar to squeeze out extra water. switch out the paper towels until they aren't getting soaked anymore, and take off the mesh. let it dry overnight. there you have homemade paper! they use it as a cover for a mini notebook in the kit.

    I study printmaking and know a lot about paper and how it's made (my second year was all about making my own printing paper). I'm pretty sure the binding agent is a specific type of glue, your paper is more fragile with less glue and more water absorbing. Since the kit comes from japan, it will probably be japanese paper or awagami (typically very very thin and lightweigt, also really soft). The glue also makes the paper a bit more smooth for easier writing and/or drawing, the more glue/agent the smoother the paper and more vast. The japanese kit is basically how I learned to make paper (except I did not use an agent so my paper was chonky and more brittle). My teacher also said they use some type of rice glue in japan for their paper, it looks a lot like mochi dough imo when I first saw it! You could try and use craft glue, but I suppose it will mostly dissolve in the water and not really interact with the pulp how it's supposed to. I hope this kinda explained it! I dont know the name of the glue tho, since different types of paper/different countries use different types of glue! Loved this video, lots of love from Belgium!

    It's worth a look!
    Also, it's interestingly pleasing to me that Crayola made a paper making craft, since they DO eco friendly stuff in their factories! Using solar powered panels to get solar energy, reusing scrap plastics for their plastic marker tubes, re-using excess wax for crayons, and (My personal favorite) manufacturing colored pencils with reforested wood, aka they use trees and replant a tree for every one cut down.

    The crayola kit actually looked about right. It's a clever and cute way to teach kids about the basics of papermaking. You used too much pulp and didn't thin it out enough, and I think you cooked it for a bit too long. Handmade paper is crumbly like that if you crush it like that, so that was normal. The paper you get in the store is completely different and goes through a bunch of different processes before it actually reaches packaging.
