Japanese silk paper, recently re-introduced by Mercurius with pages slightly firmer and colours even brighter. Comes in a notepad style block of 960 sheets in 20 assorted colours. Paper is 16 x 16 cm (6.3 x 6.3), and the density of the paper is 21 g/m².
This paper is of the finest quality in pure colours and FSC-certified paper (Forest Stewardship Council). Whether it is for tracing, window decorations or lanterns, tissue paper is a very important craft and teaching aid in kindergarten and at school. Tissue paper such as this is very delicate. Normally for window stars, we recommend our 'kite paper', as this tissue paper can easily dissolve if it gets wet. It is lovely for making lanterns or other fine crafting work. (There is also a heavier, waxier paper available for lantern making, when thicker, and more durable windows for lanterns are desired.
Project idea: Crumple aluminum foil sheets into heart shapes, or other shapes. Tear tiny pieces of silk paper, and glue onto aluminum form. Let each layer dry in between applying new layer of tissues. You can stop at just a couple layers, or pad it more. In the end, you will have a light, yet solid form.
