I haven’t agreed with myself that I won’t but new stuff - but I am cleaning out this year & using what I have as a priority. It’s also been great to gift things I know I’ll never get to, but are beautiful supplies. I was looking at some of my papers that I like, but aren’t quite me. This is just what I need to do I think, Leigh. Thanks so much for the tip! I’ve been loving your channel more each month too, I often watch on Tele & forget to go back & comment, sorry. But it’s going gangbusters. So creative & inspiring. You are fab & always easy to watch ❤❤
Aw Jen, you are so kind, thank you very much. I watched your in-the-car video, enjoyed that immensely. Lovely to see the gorgeous face that goes with the friendly voice. I've been doing a lot of watching on the tv while fussy cutting etc and am quite forgetful in regard to going back and leaving comments too. xxx
So gratifying to watch a fellow Aussie 'dry' momigami
G'day from NSW 😊
And you do momigami! So glad your channel came up when I searched for momigami. Your video is the best at showing how to do it. I was given some done on a gelli print last summer and I finally got round to using it to cover a sketchbook. It looks incredible. I have arthritis in my right hand, so I may be employing Beloved for this! Tks x
Thank you so much Margaret! 😀😀😀
Very cool. I can’t wait to see what you do with it!😊
I was thinking exactly the same thing!!🤣
When you do this make sure to moisturize your hands … the paper will dry your hands out sooooo badly. ❤
Thanks for sharing!
Very interesting but I would love to see a video on what you do with the paper after
Very interesting ❤ thanks for sharing and inspiring us ❤
Ahhhh. Going to make me some.
I kneaded a magazine page (matte not shiny) along with you. I did get a few edge tears as i was a bit heavy handed. But such an interesting change in the paper texture. Thanks for sharing.
Oh wow! Good on you for giving it a go. It's hard to avoid the tears, particularly if the paper is a bit on the thick side. Cheers
I have tried this once, my arthritic hands were not happy. But I do love the way they feel and sound! Excited to see what you do with them 🤗❤️❤️❤️
I love that Leigh mentioned the arthritis. We need to work out a technique or tool or something, don’t we. My hand OT suggested I try wrapping things in something else. Like a tea towel or those rubber grip sheets you can get - even bubble wrap. I wonder if it would work for momagami - because I love it, but want to do it when I’m flaring up too … hmmmm
Very interesting video😊
Haven't tried this before so may have to give it a go. Nice tfs
seriously! these look fabulous, thanks for sharing that, Leigh 😉
Thanks Di, just watched your travel kit video on the tv, brilliant idea. Funny thing, I'm making a mini flower press for my journal and filming it. 2 great minds think alike, lol. xxx
@@leighcreates oh brilliant! I look forward to seeing it 😺
I agree with your concern re oils and creams. Oil will eventually turn rancid and develop an unpleasant odor. Many years ago before I heard of momigami, I folded and kneaded card stock until it became soft like leather. I had lightly spritzed the paper with water to help get the paper bendy. I figured I was sorta taking the paper back to its infant days when it was pulp. I wonder if glycerine would work. Or even cornstarch in water, a very thin mixture, as you mentioned. We think acid-free paper is desirable. Adding oil seems counterintuitive. IMO. Maybe I’m overthinking. 🤪
Not sure how glycerine would go, worth a try. Luise Janetta uses thick papers, she is very enthusiastic. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.
@@leighcreates You’re welcome! 💜💜💜
thank you
You're welcome
Ancient Japanese Momigami technique consists in applying a bit of oil in your hands, rub them and then work with the paper, several times til your paper is soft as fabric.
Thank you Marcela.
