Use a mold and deckle (a wooden frame with a mesh screen). Submerge it into the vat at an angle, then lift it straight up. Shake it gently to level the pulp as the water drains. 4. Drying and Pressing

Collect old junk mail, newspapers, or printer paper. Avoid glossy or waxy paper, as they don't break down well.

Use a sponge or rolling pin to press out excess water through the back of the screen.
