However I found the instructions to this kit very confusing, they didn't explain exactly what to do and the materials seemed low quality. This is currently drying out but I am doubting that the pulp is even knitted together enough to hold together as a piece of paper.
I decided as this wasn't a great outcome to try this process out with different materials, so I have got some different pulps soaking in some water so I can mould them later. I have tried it out with some shredded newspaper:
This is the shredded newspaper soaking in water, I am going to leave it for a few hours to see if it will disintergrate at all in the water. I have put a bit of glitter in there too, I am unsure what will happen but it's worth a try!
I have also got some tissue paper soaking in some water, and I have added some of the blue dye provided from the kit:
I am thinking that the tissue paper might work out quite well as it seems to absorb the water and ink really well. The tissue may even disintergrate a bit more to produce a more "pulpy" pulp. I will go back to these in a few hours and see if I can make something that resembles paper a bit more!
