2: What to bring?
We will provide: the pulp, rafias/bits of strings, rainwater and:
- a deckle and mold
- felt pads to dry papers
- a large tupperware
- a large piece of fabric to dry papers
We'll use water and the freshly made paper won't have time to dry. Therefore please bring:
- a sponge
- towels
- a bag or folder to carry your paper home
We would also encourage you to bring bits of paper that could be recycled by us for future workshops!
3: Pricing and Toolkit
There a two toolkit options: A Full DIY kit and a 'Rent a Kit'
If choose the "full diy kit" you can take home the deckle and mold and a container used for water/pulp.
The rented kit will mean you can use them for the workshop and return them after use.
In both cases you will get felt pads and pieces of clothes (to dry your freshly made paper). Why not upcycle them as kitchen cloths or napkins ?!
Option 1: full diy kit :£25
Option 2: renting kit : £12.5
Our costings breakdown as the following, we aren't making profit.
Per person costing: renting the Queery (£4), fabric and felt pads (£2), buying or renting the deckle and mold (£10 buying, £5 renting) and the container for water/pulp (£2 buying, £1 renting). We also provide/but don't factor into our costings : the pre-made paper base (pulp) and the time/labour.
