You can easily make your own paper with a few materials from the hardware store and your own kitchen. And since this project uses old newspapers, your papermaking is actually paper recycling. Making your own paper is a great way to celebrate Earth Day, and is a fun art project, too!

What You Need:

  • Stack of old newspapers
  • Large soup pot
  • Picture frame small enough to fit inside the pot
  • Thumbtacks
  • Wooden spoon
  • Old blanket or piece of felt
  • Plywood board
  • Piece of netting or window screen bigger than the picture frame
