Heaton Cooper art studio

Post by loganorigami »

I was wondering if anyone has bought any paper from this website. It looks really good but I would like an origamists opinion before I order. They sell Chinese xuan paper and lokta plus lots more I'm unsure about. I can't link the site because I'm on my iPod.

This Lokta in that mentioned store seems like a promising test buy. The weight seems thin enough ( 30 gms) and a large enough size ( 50 cm X 70cm). Since its made with a washi method you'll probably have to treat it with Mc, but you can judge that when you have it in your hands. Good color choices too.
