Great White Mulberry Paper for Wrapping and Storing my Pu'erh Tea Cakes!
The texture of this paper is just lovely! It's sheer, durable, and soft. And the size is great, too. I appreciate that it is available in a wide roll. The acid-free quality was important as well. This is PERFECTLY suited for my need, which is to wrap Pu-erh Tea cakes for storage and long-term aging. I'm not selling the stuff, just a hobbyist, but storing tea in the wrong kind of paper can give it bad odors or even damage the tea over the years. (The tea is compressed into a brick or disk, and needs to be able to breathe and maintain humidity, so air-tight storage is to be avoided.) Handmade mulberry paper was recommended by the vendor, but I needed 17" or larger sheets. I can even write on the paper to record the exact type of tea inside. This paper is not only perfectly suited, but is also affordable and the perfect thickness. Thank you for making it available!

Perfect for use in batik
Paper is sheer and you can see the threads which adds to the overall design when using watercolor. Although sheer. paper withstood several layers of paraffin and did not tear. I am very happy with it and the price was good too1

Nice quality paper
The paper is thinner than I expected, but it is sturdy and does not tear while working with it. Good amount of threads running through it for character. I used it for the lower part of my bedroom windows. It can not be seen through and allows plenty of light in. I'm pleased with my purchase.

Durable sheer paper great for art journaling or collage.
I love mulberry paper for it sheerness and texture. Great for using scraps in art journals, and for gelli printing, then using the prints for art journal background pages. Because it’s sheer, a gelli printed piece can be adhered to book pages and music sheet paper, for an extra layer of interest. Very durable!

Light weight
Using it to fix a number of holes in 30 year old Shoji panels. Color is white with fibers running though it. Nice looking and easy to use. Obviously there is a color difference between aged thicker paper and this new paper. It works for its purpose.
