Kreatives Papierschöpfen: "Blütenpapiere"

Old paper belongs in the bin? Not at all! In our upcycling workshop, we'll show you how to give old paper a new lease of life and refine it. We don't just use any old paper, but used paper from the German National Library. In this case: old loan slips that are no longer used and would end up in the bin.

On this basis, we get to work and new writing material is created step by step in the museum cabinet. From shredding and mixing to scooping and drying: together we create individual papers with a "vat" and a sieve. In the special workshop, real natural materials are used with paper flowers to create breathtakingly beautiful, handmade papers. The variety of flowers allows for a colorful palette of creative design options that showcase the natural beauty of the flowers in individual paper creations.
