(Actual paper folding starts at the 7.15 mark.)
Momigami is a traditional Japanese paper technique that turns paper into a gorgeous soft paper. Today we look at a way to turn ordinary magazine pages and glossy images from coffee table books into momigami papers that you can use in art journals and other mixed media techniques.
I would be beyond grateful if you would contribute and support my channel and free art tutorials by going to:

PLEASE NOTE: IT IS IMPORTANT TO COAT YOUR PAGES IF THEY ARE GOING IN A JOURNAL, OTHERWISE THE OIL MAY LEAK ONTO OTHER PAGES. Try acrylic gel medium, a coat or two of PVA/craft glue/Mod Podge, etc., and be sure and test before gluing into a new book. WHEW!
If you have any questions or feedback, or even ideas of ways to use momigami magazine pages in our work, please get in touch in the comments below.
