Overview

Paper is an incredibly capable and inspiring material that every maker likely already has on hand. Paper can be cut, folded, torn, even stitched together! Not to mention writing and printing! What can't paper do? There are so many ways to work with paper in your Instructables and we want to see what fun and unique ways you can come up with.

Let the page inspire you to see what DIY creations unfold, and you could end up winning an amazing prize like a MacBook Air or a Cricut desktop CNC.
