Review by Library Journal Review

Grummer has been studying and making handmade paper since 1977, and his expertise shines here. It doesn't take a lot of special supplies or equipment to get started, just a few readily available household objects. Grummer begins with basic papermaking, then progresses to more advanced skills. Ample tips on everything from proper technique to troubleshooting problems with finished paper are included. A gallery of clever projects with directions rounds out this friendly, accessible guide to papermaking. (c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
