Marie,

According to what I have read from Jerry Bennett, you would use 400
grams of paper. I have used all different amounts. The more paper the
stronger the green strength but then the bisque is less strong.

By the way, I am hoping to invite Graham Hay to give a workshop on
paper clay next April. If you are anywhere near Cleveland, OH and
would like to attend, let me know.

Good luck with the paper porcelain. I made a paper porcelain shade for
an up light in my office and love it.

Hello Clay Folks,

I need a quickie formula if someone can help.

I want to make paperclay, porcelain..... using one 25# bag of Helios.

For a good workable mix should I use one or two rolls of toilet paper?

Anyone?

Thanks all:)

Happy mudding

Marie
