MAKING AND EMBELLISHING PAPER
Paper is the only essential key ingredient of origami that you can't do without. Many origami masters make their own papers, it's that important. There are a lot of books on the subject, a few of which I have, though this is one of those few things I've never had the time or space for the mess required(though I do day dream about it). So I'm offering reviews on my meager selection of books on paper making and embellishing, and creating stubs for those books I am aware of. If you are involved in this art, and have books to recommend, I would greatly appreciate the heads up!
