Making your own paper involves four main stages: preparing the pulp, forming the sheets, pressing out the water, and drying. 1. Prepare the Pulp

Fill a blender with water and add a few handfuls of the soaked paper. Pulse until the mixture reaches a smooth, slurry-like consistency. 2. Form the Sheet

Gather old paper like bills, newspaper, or scrap paper. Tear it into small, 1-inch squares.

Submerge the pieces in hot water for at least 12 hours (overnight) to soften the fibers.
