I have been doing this for years but didn’t know it had a name! I use sweet almond oil, and when it’s done and completely dry, I do free machine embroidery on it, it’s lovely to work on!
I Googled "What is momigami paper?" and your video was shown. Thanks for the information and demonstrating the technique. Your instructions are easy and non intimidating to follow.
Forgot to say, I print my own photographs on to copier papier (for the computer) and then oil them, and then machine embroider on top…it’s a lovely hobby!
I actually did a search for momigami, but I came across it by accident from another TH-cam tutorial, and I was so fascinated by it. Thanks for sharing your tips.
Love this. But maybe start oiling the unpainted side first so the cellulose paper fibres can absorb the oil easier than the painted side resisting the oil initially
This is a beautiful piece. Robyn McClendon, an artist I have followed for about 5 years now, has been creating momigami papers as part of her working through the aesthetics of Japanese art. I have done some but I want to do more. I am very impressed with yours. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Margaret. I think Robyn was one of the 4 or 5 videos I watched on this technique. She does such beautiful work. There is another content creator named Froyle out of New Zealand who also follows Robyn and does some lovely work.
@@treemaidenart Yes, I have been following Froyle as well. I have learned so much over the years from Robyn and am a 2nd level Patreon member so I have access to all her book making projects as well as the collage. This is the first time I have come across your channel and I do love the momigami piece you do in this video. I have subscribed. 😀
Hi, I'm in Australia. The name was posted when someone described what they had used in a picture. I googled momigami and found you. Thank you for the tutorial.
Hi from FL. Just did a search for momigami and randomly picked you. I will be doing this on Sat. I have a craft mix media show on Tuesday and Thursday and Saturday at 6pm eastern if you want to peak in. We’re starting felting Thursday now and this will be for Saturdays project. God bless💙
I am fascinated by momigami, so have searched for it. Your demonstration is excellent. It is obvious that patience is 🎉essential, and I expect the oil will be soothing.
Aloha! I wasn't searching for this technique at all. It popped up on my feed but I found it so very interesting. So thank you a d I will try this. Looks similar to faux Hawaiian maps 👍🏝
I was interested in making a flexible yet sturdy bookmark, and had heard about making paper into fabric. When I did a TH-cam search, I came up with your video. Thank you for sharing!
I had watched a video earlier on making Momigami and tried to use hand lotion and a page from a magazine, as I saw on a video. But the magazine page was just disintegrating and ripping into a little bits. I was looking to see what the best paper was to use and came across your helpful TH-cam! Thank you for your video!
You are correct. I have never heard of this lovely technique. I saw someone on What Not demonstrating this technique and searched Momigami and found you.
I saw this on someone's channel and lost it, so I did a Google search! Glad I found you! Thank you for posting. I liked and subscribed. I loved mixed media projects!
I have used the papers after I dabbed all the excess oil off and left it to dry out for a couple weeks. Used it a couple times in one of my journals and after 7 months it is still fine..If you are concerned I did another video just a couple days ago using lotion..check that one out.Thanks for viewing Cat
i was watching one of my junk journal ladies and she used this paper which i had never heard of so i searched and there you were. Thank you. I realized that during my many years that i have done this just fidgiting with a piece of paper and loved how i could get the paper soft. But i never used oil or starch.
Fascinating. I was looking for a way to incorporate my watercolor into a quilt, and needed to see how to turn watercolor paper into fabric. WHo knew that not only did it have a name, but it also is an old technique!
I’m from a junk journaling or mixed media group of peeps. I was recently watching other paper kneading videos and then yours was recommended to me. Great video TFS 😊
I just found you while looking for the history of mamigami paper. I learned a lot from you. The first TH-cam video I saw about how to make it just had you knead the paper. I like how the oil darkened your paper. I saw your playlist and many videos I want to watch.
I did a search for it, not knowing the name I put in making paper to cloth. I’m a junk journal enthusiast and mixed media artist so I want to give this a try! Thank you for a very good video.
I Googled momigami with starch because I don't think I want oily paper. This was helpful, I saw your recipe. Will search further to see more on that. Hi from Arizona.
Hi Kathy...so happy to hear that...you might want to try with hand lotion if you are at all worried about the oilyness of the oil 😀 I found that it takes quite a while for the oil to dissipate whereas the lotion is quicker.
I was looking for this because I have some ideas for a miniature diorama I'm doing and wanted light weight paper that looks like cloth to make wall hangings and I had to see if it worked on light weight paper as well as glossy (which was in a video where I first saw thus technique. This looks perfect ❤
I saw your video on TH-cam. Today I was cleaning up some Christmas wrapping and came across a lovely couple of pieces of lime polka dot tissue paper. The waxy kind. I kneaded one while watching a Netflix movie. I did not use any oil. I was impressed how it became so cloth like. I will be trying this with different papers. I'm a mixed media artist.
I was just browsing while I had my morning coffee. I do lots of paper craft, mostly book and journal making. Haven’t tried this technique but I will. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Donna...Thanks for viewing. After discovering Momigami with oil I found out you can do it with hand lotion...I prefer the hand lotion as it is less messy. Take care Donna!
Amazing! I came here by accident. I was looking for fabric paper making. This is interesting and I will try this. I am from Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Your videos keep coming up in my feed and I'm glad of the education, it's fate giving me lessons that I need, thank you very much from England, Lincolnshire.
Thanks so much Susie..hopefully you will find other videos of interest. Maybe you will find the momigami with lotion a little less messy and easier to use after...have fun!
I am here because I watched another momigami video from Robyn Mcclendon (I watch all her videos) and after this yours was suggested for me... I use coconut oil - it smells better!
I actually did search for this as I love the feel of hand made paper and fabric in journals. Though I use coconut oil the results seem the same. Thank you for sharing a great post
Hello from Tulsa, Oklahoma! AKA the middle of nowhere. This video popped up in my feed. I'm a lover of mixed media and paper crafting. Adding this technique to my list of things to try. Thanks for sharing!
It just popped up as an option from another video, about reconstituting glue sticks! Interesting to me as I once used olive oil on butterflies cut out of tracing paper, colored with markers, this made them almost transparent! I used fine silver to make bodies (wrapped and twisted) and antennas! Thank you for sharing 🎉
Thank you for this video. I've tried this technique before - using just hand cream as shown by someone else. And I have to say, I wasn't really happy with the results. (Maybe I used the wrong hand cream?) However, I have just used the method that you share - using olive oil. And although the piece hasn't dried yet, I can already tell that it's a big improvement. Plus, you have led me to Froyle, and as a New Zealander, I am very excited to follow her channel too. Thank you. 🧡💚🤎
I just learned about this MOMIGAMI paper 4 days ago via Pinterest and I don’t know why. I finally tried it today and it’s gonna take awhile before I get something I really like. I found you via another TH-camr who learned the process from your video.
Hello. I saw another artist yesterday and subbed her channel and today you popped up! Fun stuff! I have done the leather paper. Not part of a group, just little old me!! LOL Blessings!
Hi Jeanne..happy to have little old you visit my little old channel😊 Hopefully you will find other videos that are of interest to you. Take care Jeanne,hope to hear from you again.
Yours came out beautiful. Someone's channel came up as a recommendation the other day and I liked it so I've been getting more recommendation and today Yours popped up and I'm glad it didn't 😊. I've done this with brown wrapping paper, glycerin and water for the leather look so now I'll try this. 😀
Hi Marlene. Happy you found it. It only takes a few days for the smell to dissipate but needs quite a long time to dry. Have fun and thanks for watching.
@@treemaidenartdo you know if the starch used by the Japanese to make paper more like cloth, is able to be glued for collage, also this oil paper as well? I wonder if being oily it would not allow glue to stick to it. Thanks for your video.
This is so cool! Nova scotia oh my goodness i"ve been wanting to go there. I'm going to try this oil wadding paper stuff shortly. I shared it with my recovering daughter, I know she will love it.
I love mix media. Your video came up as a suggestion, I have never heard of this but do make leather look paper with Glycerine. I really enjoyed your video, thank you for sharing.
This came up in my feed. Probably because I was recently watching another mixed media TH-camr talking about recently coming across it. Looks great, must try it sometime.
Hi there, TH-cam was friendly enough to propose your video to me. Never heard of Momigami before, only knew Origami. I am really glad that you used a gel print. I have some that I don't like too much which can be used to give this a try with oil and maybe lotion as well. Your pieces turned out stunning! Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Germany, Andrea
Was looking for the Textile Talks and this video came up but I did see your technique earlier in the week when someone in my collage class told me about this. Thank you.
You are very welcome Arline. Was your collage class an online TH-cam class? Thanks for viewing.I have another quick video on creating faux leather look made from paper bag you might be interested in. Take care Arline.
I have done a version of this with water and those heavy green file folder dividers that drop/fit in file cabinets. I cut metal pieces off paper and then really soak the paper and then start wadding and flattening repeatedly to get all the cool wrinkles. Starts looking like leather! Now i think i will try with oil.
Hello, I’m new to mixed media and your video came up in my feed. I’m quite interested in trying this technique. Thanks for sharing! Glad I found your channel.
Hi mai-ja...Thanks for the comment. I actually discovered how to make momigami with hand lotion that I find less messy and easier to use when finished..same method of crumbling and adding lotion...have fun!
@@treemaidenart Ooh thank you for the tip! I really gotta give this technique a try. I am trying to start and include some more mixed media techniques in my paintings and more textures and this seems like it would be super interesting! Lots of love from Finland!
Hi from Northern Ontario! This just popped up for me. Really cool. I do mixed media art and love to incorporate fabric in my journals! Thanks for sharing!
Hi jayne...So nice to hear from a fellow Canadian. I do journals too but usually use fabric only in my vintage ones...if you decide to use this technique maybe attach to cardstock or tissue first as the oils remain for quite some time. Happy journalling and thanks for watching.
Hi. So happy your channel popped up and that beautiful paper stopped me in my tracks. I love mixed media. I’m from Ventura California and this beautiful weather has me crafting outside. 💕. Happy I subscribed
Thanks so much Susan. I was a little heavy on the oil in this video,so be careful as the oil stays for a long time. I have been to California 3 or 4 times..really enjoy driving the PCH.
You should hashtag #️⃣ craft words related to paper art. Also to draw attention to this very interesting style of art. You could call it “turning paper into cloth.” I think this is so cool. I’m glad I ran into it, because I paint. I thought to my self, hand painted paper into a beautiful dress. Thank you for sharing. I’ll be trying this ❤
I have been doing this for years but didn’t know it had a name! I use sweet almond oil, and when it’s done and completely dry, I do free machine embroidery on it, it’s lovely to work on!
Sounds interesting
I Googled "What is momigami paper?" and your video was shown. Thanks for the information and demonstrating the technique. Your instructions are easy and non intimidating to follow.
Does the oil go rancid?
@@lindamcdonald9199 no, I have never had a problem as long as the paper is completely dry….i usually leave it for several days. Enjoy trying it out!
Forgot to say, I print my own photographs on to copier papier (for the computer) and then oil them, and then machine embroider on top…it’s a lovely hobby!
Sounds great...a sewing machine would come in so handy! I only do slow stitch.
Ould be nice, to see hiw you do izlt or see the images endresult 😊
I actually did a search for momigami, but I came across it by accident from another TH-cam tutorial, and I was so fascinated by it. Thanks for sharing your tips.
Love this. But maybe start oiling the unpainted side first so the cellulose paper fibres can absorb the oil easier than the painted side resisting the oil initially
Thanks for watching..great tip Angie. Take care friend.
She actually did start on the blank side.😊
We use to do this as kids with brown paper grocery bags to make our book covers. ♡
Same here!!!
Thank you for saying this! I was watching this thinking, "I learned this years ago as a kid! "
Does the oil leech through to the book?
I have a pile of broken paper covered in oily marks in my hands. 😂

Hi Bird Watcher..I must warn you it stays oily for a long time. I would try using hand lotion first for a less greasy effect.🙂
That's a brilliant idea!😃
I did this today. It was so soothing.
Beautiful. I've seen a few other youtubers showing this technique but your video was the most enjoyable. Thank you. ❤

Just came onto momigami. I've been saving paper to reuse it this summer and I'm fascinated.
Hope you enjoy it!

Found you while browsing anf happy to have found you. Best wishes from the Falkland Islands 🐧 🐧😃
Very Nice art 👍 thanks
Thank you! Cheers!
You should hashtag #️⃣ craft words related to paper art. Also to draw attention to this very interesting style of art. You could call it “turning paper into cloth.” I think this is so cool. I’m glad I ran into it, because I paint. I thought to my self, hand painted paper into a beautiful dress. Thank you for sharing. I’ll be trying this ❤
