📜 Imported Japanese Calligraphy Paper - 100 Sheets from DAISO Review

Otherwise it is definitely as advertised. Just tell the shipper it should be in a heavyweight cardboard envelope with a…

There are some differences like fiber content and sheen, but getting 100 for $5 that does the job was a WAHOO moment. it runs smoothly through my printer, dries like normal paper (no ink smearing). For any crafter who has thought about trying the rice paper technique but was afraid of the expense, THIS is the way to go. Fast shipping meant I could start projects right away. However, I…

This thin rice paper is clearly marked PRACTICE - not intended for definitive fine art gallery use. And it's all right! We all need to practice and test things, and most of us don't have the money to do it on expensive paper. This thin paper allows us to practice our techniques, try new styles, all on paper that's responsive enough without breaking the bank. Perfect for all those handy activities when you get a new brush or ink or whatever and want to see how it works. If someone complains that
