Answer:
The traditional saa paper from Laos is made from the mulberry bark cut and pounded into small pieces. After being soaked in water, they are boiled and then soaked in alkaline, then rinsed and beaten with a wooden mallet.
Traditional Sa Paper "Sa" is the Lao name for mulberry tree (broussonetia papyrifera vent). Its bark is used to make traditional paper, either plain or with an addition of dried flowers.
The paper in its plain form is used by artists for painting.
The wet bark ... is vigorously beaten. It is then poured into a wooden frame. Dried flowers are added.The freshly made paper is left in the sun to dry.
The paper decorated with dried flowers is used to make beautiful lampshades, writing paper, greetings cards and bookmarks.
I personally also use it to wrap clothes and photographs as the traditional paper protects well these items from the tropical humidity.
