What makes this white watercolour paper good for painting, especially with its textured surface and deckled edge?

Our 150gsm white watercolour paper is crafted from 100% recycled cotton, giving it a beautiful, natural feel perfect for painting. The uncoated surface is designed for excellent absorbency, allowing your watercolours to blend and bloom just right without spreading too much. The lovely textured finish adds character to your artwork, and the authentic deckled edge provides a timeless, artisanal look that's ideal for fine art, journaling, or creating unique stationery. It's a joy to paint on!

Can I use this recycled cotton paper for arts and crafts, like junk journals or thank you cards?

Absolutely! This paper is a favorite for junk journals, scrapbooking, illustrations, and handmade stationery. Being acid-free and archive quality means your creations will last. The 100% recycled cotton gives it a unique, high-quality feel that elevates any project. Customers love using it for everything from thank you letters and wedding invitations to DIY art projects. Just a note: it's not recommended for printing, as the texture and uncoated surface aren't ideal for inkjet or laser printers.

Is this paper suitable for ink? What about the weight and texture for everyday journaling?

For everyday journaling and illustrations with ink pens, this paper works beautifully! The 150gsm weight is substantial enough to prevent most inks from bleeding through, especially gel pens or fine liners. The slightly textured surface also adds a nice tactile quality to your writing and drawing. If you're using very wet inks like fountain pen inks with a broad nib, a test sheet is always a good idea, but for most journaling purposes, you'll find it performs very well and offers a lovely writing experience.
