For paper making I brought in lots of different materials: wool, newspaper, news print paper, magazines, and lots of other types of paper. Once you chose what materials you were going to use you cut/ ripped them all into small piece and soaked them in water for 10 minutes. Once soaked we poured this mix into the blender a small amount at a time so the motor did not over heat. Once you had a mush consistency I added a bit of water to the mix and then started to sift the mush onto the wire mesh evenly. then I tipped the level mush onto some scrap material to dry.
