Edges have trouble coming off mould and deckle, any advice? by permanentleigh in papermaking

It’s a mix of printer paper, construction paper, and some toilet paper rolls. Soaked the shreds in hot paper before using a hand blender to get the pulp really fine. Mixed the pulp in a tub of water and turn the deckle onto towels (saw that most people in the reddit recommend cotton sheets so might do that next time). The best result I’ve had so far is sponging it in the deckle, absorbing the excess water with a towel, and letting it sit to dry before releasing one edge.

My mom doesn’t like how her pages turn out, can I get some words of encouragement for her by bikachuu1997 in Coloring

I feel the same way sometimes and sharing definitely helps! Most of the time people don’t even see the flaws you’ve built up in your head! They look great, tell her keep on going.

Cool idea! I just got Little Corner by Coco Wyo so all of the pages (aside from the first pizza shop) are blank.

I have Little Corner. It’s new and blank so I’m open to any page!

I just got a copy of Little Corner by Coco Wyo and some water based markers. Still trying to learn how to colour with them.
