Paper Type Guide
Paper Type Guide
Choosing the right paper can make a difference to your decoupage project. At Creative Miking, we offer a selection of mulberry papers with different thicknesses, textures and levels of transparency.
Our decoupage papers have a soft, natural white appearance rather than the stark, bright white of standard printer paper.
30gsm With Fibres
Our traditional mulberry paper features visible natural fibres, giving it a distinctive, slightly textured appearance.
At 30gsm, it offers a good balance between flexibility and ease of handling.
A good choice if: You enjoy the natural texture and characteristic look of traditional mulberry rice paper.
30gsm Fibreless Smooth
A smooth, fibreless mulberry paper with a cleaner, more uniform appearance and no visible fibres.
This 30gsm paper has a smooth printing surface and is a versatile choice for a wide range of decoupage projects.
A good choice if: You prefer a smooth, fibre-free finish while retaining the feel of lightweight mulberry paper.
18gsm Fibreless Extra Thin
Our thinnest and most translucent paper option.
Exceptionally lightweight and delicate, this paper creates a very fine layer when applied to your project. Due to its thinness, it requires more careful handling, particularly when wet.
A good choice if: You enjoy working with very thin decoupage papers and prefer a delicate, less noticeable paper layer.
A3 Fibreless Paper
Our larger A3 designs are printed exclusively on smooth, fibreless mulberry paper.
Current paper weight: 27gsm
This lightweight paper has a smooth, fibre-free appearance and is suitable for larger decoupage projects.
Other paper types are currently unavailable in A3.
Paper Colour & Natural Characteristics
Our mulberry papers have a natural white tone, which may appear softer and less bright than ordinary white printer paper.
Texture, transparency and appearance vary between paper types. Minor variations in shade and texture may also occur between production batches.
