Paper Making with Gail Lebelacker. Gail has been interested in creating things all her life and recently tried her hand at paper making.She enjoyed it so much that she is now in the process of starting her own business. You will see how easy it is and how much fun you can have incorporating different things into the paper - like Coffee grounds, parsley and bits of yarn etc - It certainly gets the imagination going! She will demonstrate this and have an example of what it can be used for. Hands-on trials will be available as well. Gail will bring the material for us.
