Question:

How to recycle used paper at home ?

I want to know the method to recycle used paper at home without using high technology.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

Hmmm. How high is "high technology?" I use a paper shredder (hand cranked), then let the shreds soak in a bucket overnight. The next day, I "pulp" it by running it through an OLD blender. I put this in a tub of water, and use a paper-making screen and fabric squares to create a sheet of paper.

The paper is very thick -- it is almost like art paper. It would be good for stationery, but I don't think it would be good for every-day use, because it is thick and the edges are uneven. If you cut it, the size could be uneven, too. But, it is nice for greeting cards and special crafts.

Hope that helps. You might try asking in "crafts" under the Games and Recreation subtitle.
