Paper scoop
Start by cutting or tearing waste paper into small pieces. Place these shreds in a suitable container, such as a bucket or tub.
Cover the shredded Paper with warm water. Leave the mixture to soak for about 1 hour to loosen the fibers.
Grind the soaked pieces of paper with a blender or hand blender until you have a smooth mixture.
Add cotton cellulose and chalk powder to the paper mixture and mix well with a spoon to form an even mixture.
Fill a large tub about 10 to 15 cm high with water so that the paper scoop frame fits in completely and can be easily swirled.
Now place the shredded mixture in the tub.
Place the two-part scoop frame on top of each other and place it vertically on the bottom of the tub. Slowly pull the frame up and use it to lift out the paper pulp. It is important to keep the frame horizontal and as straight as possible so that the paper pulp is evenly distributed. The deco fishing net of the scoop frame allows the water to drip off and the paper fibers remain on top. Let the excess water drip off.
Remove the top frame. Turn the frame with the deco fishing net over so that the paper mass lies smoothly on a soft, absorbent surface. You can use a thicker felt sheet or tea towels for this. The felt sheet will remove any remaining moisture. Carefully remove the frame from the paper.
You can speed up the drying of the paper a little by carefully dabbing the damp surface of your designed paper pulp dry with a cloth. Drying in direct sun light is also recommended.
