About this title

Synopsis

Recycling makes good sense, and the ultimate in recycling must surely be transforming waste paper into beautiful, useful objects. Gerry Copp makes hand-made paper from coloured waste paper, such as printers offcuts and junk mail as her raw material to decorate her papier-mache ware. This book demonstrates the many and varied techniques readers can choose from to make a range of colourful items, from bowls and plates to clocks, boxes and jewellery. The ideas include collaging torn shapes and coloured foil, using waxed and herb papers, and laminating. They should inspire readers to take up a craft that costs virtually nothing yet allows one to produce unique works of art.
