Handmade paper from Stringybark (Eucalyptus sp.).

"You likely know that almost all paper is made from plant material (cellulose). What you might not know is that a large part of paper strength is the hydrogen bonding that occurs from fiber-to-fiber."

More on this is found in the "Cookbook for Papermaking at Home and in the Classroom".
