In this part of the tutorial we finish making the paper from corn. And I show you some alternatives for drying the paper.

Continue pressing out the water.

Another good way to remove some of the water is to put a screen over the paper and then dab it firmly with a sponge.

Once a good percentage of the water has been removed you then press the paper. You do this by sandwiching it between absorbent sheets and weighing it down with heavy weights. A large stack of books is pretty good for this. The heavier the press the better the paper will be. Let it dry and press like this overnight.

Once it is dried there it is! Your sheet of paper made from corn.
