Re: Japanese paper is a eureka moment

I first started using shoji paper 30 years ago after getting several rolls from a friend I knew while visiting Japan. I made shoji screens for the whole bottom floor of our house, they are still in use today. The paper has been changed several times, the paper will go a light brown and get much thinner over time and easily damaged. I use regular white glue like in childrens class room projects in the plastic container where you can adjust the bead size. In the summer if the humidity is high its not necessary to spray with water, after a few days they are tight.
