1. HOW TO DO A HIGH-QUALITY PAPER,
AS IN THE 14th CENTURY.

2.  WHO SAYS THAT HAND-MADE PAPER-MAKING IS
DIFFICULT?
 NOT AT ALL. FROM THE “RICHARD THE BAS
WATERMILL” IN AMBERT, THE VERY HEART OF
FRANCE, OUR MATE MILA, AN EXPERT
“PAPETIÉRE”, SHOWS US ALL THE PROCESS IN 6
EASY STEPS.

3.  MATERIALS YOU NEED: A WATERMILL IN
AMBERT, A TRAY WITH A REMOVABLE FRAME
AND PAPER PASTE, WELL MIXED PREVIOUSLY.

4.  PUT THE TRAY INTO THE BARREL AND FILL IT
COMPLETELY WITH PASTE

5.  DRAIN OFF ALL REMAINING WATER.

6.  GET THE FRAME OUT OF THE TRAY.

7.  PLACE THE TRAY IN THE EXACT POSITION AS IN
THE PICTURE AND TURN IT OVER A SHEET OF
THIN PAPER.

8.  NOW PUSH THE TRAY WITH BOTH HANDS SO
THAT THE PASTE WILL REMAIN ON THE SHEET
OF THIN PAPER.

9.  ET VOILÀ!!! YOUR PAPER IS DONE. NOW YOU
ONLY HAVE TO HANG IT FROM CLOTHESPINS
FOR DRYING AS YOU DO WITH YOUR SOCKS.
