RECYCLING PAPER
Tear half a sheet from an old newspaper into small pieces. Now soak these pieces in a vessel of hot water for 30 minutes. Keep stirring and blending till the pieces become soft and soggy. At this stage you can add some color or pieces of dried flowers and leaves. Add some glue to the meshy mixture. Drain out the excess water. Take out the soft paper  mash and put it on a dry paper. Make balls out of it. Use a rolling pin to make a square or a rectangular paper. Dry the paper and iron it. Use this recycled paper to make greeting cards.
