Yuzen Chiyogami and Shizen papers on display at the Seattle DANIEL SMITH Store

In our new DANIEL SMITH 2009-2010 Reference Catalog we have 15 new patterns of Yuzen Chiyogami papers for you to use in your Art projects.  

 Historically these lovely patterns were painstakingly carved onto multiple woodblocks, one for each color, and hand printed onto fabric for kimonos, or onto paper for paper dolls or small paper boxes.  Today, the brilliant colors are silkscreened, each color separately, onto strong kozo/sulphite paper with crisp detailed patterns making the gorgeous papers.  These lush papers can be used for bookbinding, gift wrap, collage, lampshades, origami, card-making, framing, scrapbooking, or wherever your artistic expression leads you!

 
Tip – if you collage the paper onto a lampshade, use DANIEL SMITH Acrylic Medium in Gloss or Matte to apply the papers to the outside surface of the lampshade.
 
Every Day,  Express Yourself  with  ART….
