The first part of this beginner-friendly workshop, will be a hands-on session of basic papermaking techniques as well as a window into the fascinating history and science of the craft. Once all students have pulled their first sheets, they will experiment with embossing, laminating, and adding inclusions, to make their paper even more unique! In part two of the session, students will enjoy creating cards with the paper they made and embellish with a variety of supplies provided by the instructor. A small materials fee of $4, is required from each participant, paid directly to the instructor at the start of the class, cash or e-transfer accepted. Heidi will bring a selection of string, pressed plant material, paper inserts, ribbon and will also provide specialty hole punchers for students to use in class. As a long-time presenter at the Ontario Science Centre, Heidi Breier honed her hands-on papermaking skills and since 2015 has been sharing her knowledge with people of all ages.
