Paper is amazing stuff. It's cheap, easy to use, and easy to
recycle. It's lightweight and easy to cut or tear--but incredibly
strong when folded, layered, or rolled. It can stand stiff as a
board, pop up like a spring, or hang softly like a silk scarf. It's
disposable, but it can last for centuries. Its surface can be
rough, or creamy smooth, or shiny. Sometimes it's so thin you can
see through it; other times, it's thick enough to hold globs of
paint. But it can also be beautiful, all on its own. The projects
in Paper Inventions were inspired by the many different varieties
of paper, from fancy artists' watercolor paper to recycled copy
paper, and the many different ways it is used. Whether you like to
make crafts or play with electronics, there's a project that will
challenge you and unleash your creativity. Projects in this book
include: DIY flavored edible paper and ink Paper sensors and
switches Paper windmill and paper machines 3D designs with paper
Origami and other fold and cut designs
This work is filled with detailed photographic instructions on how
to create some truly amazing items from cardboard.

lettering style. Techniques include: * Using ink and brush *
