Very cool!!!! Do you make your own paper? If so do you have any ideas of what to research to Start making paper. I made it before and caused a massive fly explosion because I clearly am one of those folks who is like The Fool from the tarot deck and gleefully leaps into the unknown. Most times that works out. The paper making turned fly experiment not so much!

Hahahaha! Sorry that made me laugh out loud. I have never made paper myself but it is a goal of mine for this or maybe next year. I do believe there are a lot of online videos for if you wanna make some. Did your fly explosion come when you tried to blend your pulp? I hope you're adding enough water to it so that the paper bits don't catch on fire with the heat that the blender creates.
