Thank you so much Lisbeth, I really really enjoyed watching you create those Momigami papers I absolutely love ❤❤❤❤ these and it’s very inspiring too. Please stay safe and well too xxxx Mags ❤❤❤❤ xxx
Ive been doing momigami for years… but have never painted the paper first… ill have to try that next! However, for those who add oil or lotions, keep in they all have limited shelf life and will, in time go rancid and stink up the piece ………. Thats why i use Mineral oil because it never go rancid.
I just received an early birthday gift from my son and saved the beautiful gold craft wrapping paper to include in some art and your video about momigami is perfect timing. I learned about it in lockdown from the channel of British artist Louise Jannetta and made some from a few types of paper. I just made a first small piece and it will be beautiful to use in some collage. Thank you for the reminder of this technique!
Just found your lovely blogs, I have only ever used the technique of just scrunching up the napkins without any oils or lotions. I will definitely be trying to paint the paper with acrylic first. Thank you so much for sharing your technique.
I love making Momigami too. You can use any lotion, oil or even hair conditioner to make the paper softer and more like fabric. I believe technically it does become fabric. It will also deepen the colors and some papers become translucent. ❤️
I hate cream on my hands as well! Glad l have finally found someone else with the same problem!!!! I do what you did with the black ink, l do with gold paint on a flat brush on dark momigrami paper it looks beautiful.l liked the colours you used on the papers.love from ltaly ❤
Hello from Toronto, Lisbeth thank you for your Momigami technique. Usually, I use coconut oil, just a tiny bit on my hands to mush the papers. I let it dry and then painted the papers. Next time I will try the way you do it. My hands get stiff as well, I have Ostearterithis. Thank you for your tutorial.
A most interesting video, Lisbeth. I've taken notes and will sit this afternoon and create! I am going to enjoy this transformation of the paper. Thank you.
Thank you for this demonstration! I pulled a few papers from magazines that are sturdier (non-shiny) pages and I'm hoping that I get a good result. I also really liked the ink trick that you showed on the wax paper. I ♥ wrinkled paper
@@lisbethdegn-dragenkunst You know what, I had NO idea that can happen, and I just looked it up and lotions, once they reach the expiration date can be subject to bacterial and fungal growth. Wow, I did not know that. So now I wonder if I should discard all the papers that I have turned into "fabric" using lotion. 🤔🤔🤔🤔 Thank you for the info.
Could you use a gelli plate to give the papers a coat of paint? I have done this spraying the paper with water and glycerine. It was quite thick brown paper and it turned out like leather! Never knew the name. 😊⭐️🇦🇺🦘
You can do this so many different way, this is just the way I do it. But of course you could use your gel plate. I my case I just like the painted papers better, even though I love my gel plate
