"After you have decided what color you want to use run the paper through a cross cut shredder so that you get this nice pretty confetti and this batch I've decided to do with yellow with just little flecks of purple in it. To make my pulp I will fill my blender with our shredded paper, you don't want to over fill it or you might burn up your blender, about like that, fill the rest with water. You can also add dried flowers, herbs, glitter, you know it's your imagination, what you want to do. Then we want to puree this until it is liquid. When you don't see any more chunks then it is ready to go. I pour it into a big vat. I use these bus tubs like restaurants use."
