Paper Weaving
1. Fold a piece of paper (any size) in half and make cuts from the foldto about 1" from the edge. Open the paper. This will be your "warp."
2. From another piece of paper, cut long narrow strips to weave in and out of the warp.
3. Optional: to make your weaving more interesting, you can vary the width of the spaces between your warp cuts, or make your warp cuts wavy. You can also use several different colors of paper.
4. To finish, trim the strips to the same length as the paper. Then glue our staple the strips in place along the edge.
5. Optional: you can make 4" x 4" squares to make coasters, then after you finish weaving, cover both sides with clear contact paper, leaving about a 1/4" edge around the coaster.
