The Fabled Thread | Join our Studio

In this video guide I show you how to make patterned paper using my layering method. I will walk you through all the materials you need. These patterned papers are then perfect to use for collaging or paper crafts. I particularly love using these to make hanging decorations. You can also scan your papers in and then have them printed to make your own wrapping paper or cards. See some examples below of the types of paper you will learn how to make.
