I am a gourd artist and want to try incorporating it onto a gourd and was in a quandary as how to treat it. I'm going to give it a try.

Some of it will be cut for decorative logs but I wanted to make paper from it, too. I'll attempt it your way first and hopefully won't have to break it down into fibers like mulberry paper. (The melaleuca bark is different than paperbark birch in that it is really fuzzy feeling.) Wishing you and yours a wonderful 2016!

Fun to hear what other Michiganders are up to! Hasn't this little warm up in weather been wonderful!? I hope the sunshine stays for a while. Have fun with birch, I wish I had some in my yard, I have to steal it from my in-law's yard! ;) Enjoy your week Laurie!

I have lots of birch bark but I have never separated it like you showed!!Years ago I covered a small bird house with it. I will be trying this as soon as I can get out in my shed!! I have an antique pie crust table & some of the veneer on the top is gone. I plan on filling it with wood fill & I want to put birch bark over the whole top of the table. I'd also like to cover the drawers of a night stand & a chest of drawers to match for the spare bedroom. Thank you SO much for sharing this technique!!! I live in Tustin, Michigan. I thought I read someplace that you also live in Michigan? Happy creating!!Craftaholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17269187215806095486noreply@blogger.com
