The Birth of a Sheet: Handmade Paper Workshop
Paper begins as fiber.
In the papermaking process, waves are stirred again and again. These waves guide the fibers to flow, settling into sheets of warm, textured handmade paper.
Paper begins as fiber. Different types of fiber create different paper arts. Rough-fibered works are suitable for paper decorations like wrapping paper or lampshades. Fine-fibered handmade paper is smoother and often used for writing and printing.
This time, we invite you to feel the delicacy of the fibers. Use your hands to create unique stationery, postcards, or greeting cards.

About the Instructor
- Instructor: Redtonetone, founder of Hong Kong's "LomfaFair" and a full-time paper artist.
- Introduction: Fully dedicated to handmade paper creation and teaching, Redtonetone founded "LomfaFair" in 2014 with the concept of forming paper from the waves stirred in clear water. To learn traditional papermaking, she traveled to the Puli Village Paper Craftsman Workshop in Taichung to study with paper craftsman Lin Zhengli, learning how to source natural materials to create unique handmade paper. Deeply moved by the craftsman's spirit, effort, and expertise, this papermaking journey inspired a mission and a responsibility to pass on the "ancient art of papermaking."
