Paper-Making & Mentor Update

Yesterday I made paper, or at least I attempted to. I have very limited paper-making experience. I'm a little bummed that it came out so grey, but I think overall it looks pretty cool. Some of it is still a little damp, which is why I think maybe I missed a step or something. It feels really fragile, so I might do some more reading about paper-making and try again. I'll post some photos soon.

I also want to make sure that you know that the WCA Mentors Program will be meeting at Gya this Saturday for our first planning meeting. Come learn about the program, ask questions, and offer suggestions. I'm going to post all the info shortly.
