Handmade Lokta Vintage 8.5x11" Printer Paper for Laser and Inkjet Decorative Printing (100 Sheets, Indigo)

I was delighted to find this paper for a book covering project I was working on; i used this paper for printing the titles of the books for the spines of the books. the paper printed well in my very basic inkjet printer that often balks at printing labels or cardstock. The print came out crisp (no blurring) just as I hoped. Very pleased with purchase.

This is the third unique product I have purchased from this seller and each is just as, if not more stunning than the previous purchase. Specifically, this paper does very well in my laserjet printer as well as my writing and cutting machine. The quality and consistency is beautiful. I searched for quite a long time to discover this particular paper and seller and it was so worth it. If you are considering purchasing this paper, you absolutely should. I would buy it again and again.

I bought this as back up paper to create wedding table assignment cards. I also ordered Handmade Lokta Card Stock 5x7 Inch Paper with Deckle Edge, which was my 1st choice but was unsure if that paper would work. It did, so I ended up not using this, but this paper would work great in laser or inkjet. It looks wonderful and was smooth.

I expected this to be pink, from both the description and the picture, When it arrived (in three different packages, on three different days), the paper was, in fact, red. Totally red, nothing pink about it. That said, however, it is very nice paper. As claimed, it fed through the ink jet printer with no trouble. Unfortunately, it is also rather thin, and very absorbant. This caused considerable bleed-through from both sides, so it is not suitable for double-sided printing. Also, because the paper is soft and uneven, it picked up stray streaks of ink. I am switching to a less special paper for my project.

I love paper a lot. These pages are lovely, with natural fibers showing and each sheet is unique, which I love. They take up water/ink well and hold up (mostly) to me spraying and painting on them. I don't plan on printing on them so haven't tried that.

I am using this paper as stationary and it turned out better than expected. The sheets are somewhat thick, but very soft. Pens do not bleed through unless you are using a sharpie or something. I have had people express how much they like the paper because it feels authentic. It comes in plastic packaging so it will not be damaged by moisture in transit. Overall, a great purchase and I look forward to ordering more.

I am very impressed with this paper. I'll be using it for marketing materials for my ETSY business. Running a botanical skincare line, these have the natural and organic feel I need. Knowing that small village people in Nepal (probably buddhist) made this, makes it feel almost sinful to use such gorgeous handmade paper for such shallow purposes. I'd rather be writing poetry or meaningful things on these! I hope that this little business in Nepal will continue to ship their beautiful paper to Amazon so that people can enjoy this high quality and organic Lokta paper. Thank you to the creators of this paper! Blessings to all of you.

Nice texture Just not anywhere near the color on the screen…. I thought a pink. But totally red
