{"product_id":"schiffer-publishing-weaving-paper","title":"Weaving Paper","description":"\u003cp\u003eRolling and weaving paper transforms ephemeral materials into surprisingly sturdy objects. Dorothea Katharina Schmidt's approach requires minimal tools, just the scrap paper accumulating in your home and basic supplies you likely already own. The thirteen projects progress logically from simple forms to more complex structures, each supported by clear step-by-step photographs that show hand positions and weaving sequences rather than assuming prior basket-making experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSchmidt covers essential finishing techniques that elevate paper weaving from craft exercise to refined objects: varnishing for durability, dyeing for color control, stenciling for pattern, and strategic embellishment with buttons or found materials. These techniques matter because they determine whether your finished piece holds up to actual use or remains purely decorative. The hardcover format keeps the book open flat on your work surface, practical when you're following instructions with paper-covered hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce you've worked through the projects, the techniques adapt to whatever paper arrives in your mailbox: magazines, junk mail, catalogs, wrapping paper. You're not buying specialized materials; you're repurposing what would otherwise be recycled or discarded.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Schiffer Publishing","offers":[{"title":"each","offer_id":47974137331941,"sku":"93238","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.texasart.mom\/products\/schiffer-publishing-weaving-paper","provider":"Texas Art Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
