Arts and Crafts paper

When I moved out of Denmark a few years ago, I couldn’t find any glazed paper to make my paper ornaments. All the arts and crafts paper I found were not glazed, too thin or too thick. So I decided to make my own!

I found a paper manufacturer who is able to meet my exact requirements; and the result is nothing short of the best arts and crafts paper I have ever worked with! These papers are of substantial weight and excellent quality. I use them to make all my paper ornaments. I am very pleased with how durable my woven heart basket ornaments are. I think of this arts and crafts paper as the ‘new and improved’ version of the Danish paper that I grew up using!

Arts and Crafts paper package

This package contains:

- 6 sheets of red arts and crafts paper
- 4 sheets of white arts and crafts paper
- 2 sheets of gold arts and crafts paper
- 3 sheets of printed stencils; for 4 large woven hearts, 8 medium woven hearts and 10 small woven hearts (all in different patterns!)

Each sheet measures approximately 8 x 11.5 inches or 21 x 29.5 cm.

As a bonus, I have included three sheets of printed stencils to help you make your own paper hearts. You will be able to make 22 woven hearts (in various sizes and designs) with the total 12 sheets of arts and crafts paper.
