Papermaking

'

In class, we learned how to make paper out of bits of old newspaper, fabric, and other scraps. The process was really interesting because when you think of paper, you don't think of how much we use or produce. Maybe we would use less and recycle more if we were making paper like this. But unfortunately this process is only a craft, or something people do for artistic purposes....it just takes too long to mass produce. I wrote "Time heals all wounds" because the day we made paper, was about a week after my grandmother passed away...and it was the day I went to visit her at her burial site. I remember papermaking day for more reasons than one.
