Handmade Paper from Produce.
The author shows you how the inedible parts of common fruits and vegetables, normally considered too weak for papermaking, can be used to create delicately coloured and scented art papers. The book details the basic material and equipment you will need to start - all of which can be found in any kitchen - while illustrations and photographs explain the basic techniques for forming and drying the paper sheets.
Now you're ready to delve in the garbage and experiment: over 50 pages of recipes illustrate the different colours and textures you can achieve with corn husks, banana peels, asparagus ends, pineapple tops, broccoli stems, grapefruit peel, and others. An additional section describes methods of embellishing your paper.
