Tissue paper brand?

Post by Pike »

I live in the US and having trouble with finding an appropriate tissue paper for making double tissue paper with MC. I found a non-bleeding tissue paper in a grocery store (Safeway) that works well, but per pack is only 5 sheets and can get rather expensive when I want to make more.

I also worked with a bleeding tissue paper that was rather cheap with quantity, but didn't find it good to work with MC.

I was wondering whether if there was a good brand of tissue paper in the US that would be perfect for MC?

Thanks

I get my tissue paper from a box in my room…I believe it originated from a teacher supplies store about 13 years ago though. Strangely I've found some colors don't work as well as others. My favorite has been the dark grey, which is why I use it a lot. The dark red didn't work very well.
