LEATHER VILLAGE Watercolor Paper - 12 X 16 inches, 50 Sheets - Mixed Media Watercolor Paper - 150 GSM Thick Deckle Edge Virgin Cotton Handmade Paper - Vintage Toned

First of all, you CAN watercolor on these pretty papers. Just be careful and experiement with a sheet or two. You can't use tape but I had no trouble not using tape. It didn't bleed through to the back. There are some flaws and some creases on some of the papers but that just adds to the character of old paper. I made this art yesterday morning and sold it within a few hours. Stamping as well works wonderfully. It doesn't lift if you want to remove a mark where you made a mistake but you can lift to lighten a color or remove too much water. They are fun to paint on :) I love it and think it's beautiful. ♥️

I bought this paper to paint handmade postcards on. While it is great quality and soaks the paint/water well, it is too flimsy to put through the mail. Simple solution - I glue this paper to Strathmore Watercolor Postcards, 4”x6”. That paper is very sturdy, and has lines on the back of each card for correspondence and address, as well as stamp. Simple craft glue works perfectly to put them together.After I do this, everything is sturdy enough to mail.If you aren’t looking to mail this paper, I’d give it 5 stars. I love the “torn up” looking edges. Gives the paper a unique look.I would purchase again.

This 100% cotton watercolor paper exceeded my wildest dreams! I purchased it to make maps for a pirate treasure hunt. I used markers, oil pastels, watercolor crayons with a blending pen, and acrylic paint pens to get all effects I was looking for. I even put a wax seal in the upper right corner (not shown in this image.) This paper handled all the media I used like a champ!It's not the cheapest paper, but well worth the price! I would definitely buy this again. I highly recommend purchasing this gorgeous handmade paper. I would give it ten stars if I could!Footnote: I rarely write reviews unless something stuns me.

Really cant say enough about this paper. It is so fantastic for a quick painting. No it cant handle a massive amount of water - its not THAT sturdy - but for a basic general painting its so great. Ive told so many people about this paper lol - It is my go to for a quick study or practice. I use arches for a more professional painting but arches is not cheap.. this is perfect for the price.

Lovely texture, old style linen feel. Thin, but handles water well. I wouldn't scrub, but this is an inspiring surface for when you're in an art rut. Don't expect it to behave like a pressed or mould made cold press and it is quite enjoyable. Paint can move a bit like hot press, but with texture.

When I got this in the mail, I thought it would be too soft for producing fine detail (I paint in watercolor, but highly detailed). I was wrong! This paper holds crisp, clear lines. It is sturdy with a 'laid" surface finish, and the "vintage" paper is much lighter than it looks in the photos. It is a sort of an ecru with darker deckles. Paper is not too thick, and is opaque when held up to the light. The deckles are so nice and I love that it came in a small size! It's also a great price for 50 sheets of a handmade cotton watercolor paper! Highly recommended!

This paper was perfect for a project I did. It’s such a stunning texture and makes any project look so much more classy.

These are great except the paper sometimes doesn't stay together. If you stroke the paper too much it starts to disintegrate. But for what they are they work well enough for me. Not sure if I would buy them again but definitely better than having nothing.

モノクロ写真を顔料プリンターで作品制作する原紙として購入。2023年6月2日にXXLサイズ50枚を3,919円で購入した。商品はビニール袋に入ってAmazon段ボールに多少過剰包装気味で到着。用紙は細い麻紐？みたいなもので、束ねられていたが、これだけ細いと、少しの自重で糸跡や切れ込み痕が残るので、日本の和紙の束ね方と同じように、帯紙で束ねるように現地の生産者へ伝えてあげればよいと思う。枚数チェックしたが、定数50枚あって問題なし。XXLサイズ／12 x 16インチ(30.5 x 40.6 cm)なので、A3ノビより少し長辺が短いくらいの大きさ・・・ただし、ダメージエッジ仕上げの為、寸法はかなりばらつき感がある。紙質はかなりビンテージ感がある。。。西洋海賊の宝地図みたいだと言えばイメージが伝わり易いか。和紙でもなく洋紙系でもない。当方はこれからインクジェット用に溶剤を塗布してプリンターに通すのだが、紙厚がかなりバラバラで大変かも。。。0.40㎜～0.6前後だが、中には0.2㎜クラスもあり、一枚ずつプリンターのギャップ調整が必要か。また紙の4辺が和紙で言うところの手漉き的なダメージエッジが特徴だが、盛大過ぎてこのままではプリンターに真っ直ぐ給紙されないと思うので、多少成型カットが必要。まあこれらの工藝手作業も楽しみではある。

少しおしゃれな紙を探していたところこの商品にたどり着きました。用途にもよるかもしれませんが、絵を書くのはもちろん、工作やDIYの材料として使用しています。

こちらもまだちゃんと使って無いのでこれから使うのが楽しみです

他の方の様な使用方法では無いですが、紙質がとてもいい雰囲気になるのでイラスト印刷用紙として使用しています。言い方悪くなりますが、ものとしてはとても年季の入った昔の家の壁紙のような黄ばみ加減がとても良くて好きです。

水彩紙としては、好みにもよるかと思うが、弾き(サイジング？)がけっこう強い、かと思えばけっこう色が染み込むのでティッシュオフもほぼ不可能、色の伸びも良くない……発色は想定範囲内。私はあまり仲良くなれない紙だなぁと思ったので、水彩以外の用途で使おうと思う。あと残念だったのは、製造工程でできたものなんだろうけど、洗濯ばさみで挟んだような痕がついてるような紙もあって……これはいかんって思った……。
