CONSTRUCTION PAPER

Construction paper, also known as sugar paper, is coloured cardstock paper. The texture is slightly rough, and the surface is unfinished. Due to the source material, mainly wood pulp, small particles are visible on the paper's surface. It is used for projects or crafts. The etymology of "sugar paper" lies in its use for making bags to contain sugar. It is related to the "blue paper" used by confectionery bakers in England from the 17th century onwards; for example, in the baking of Regency ratafia cakes (or macaroons).
Construction paper is great for a variety of activities, including arts and craft projects like flower-making, decorating placemats, and making props. If you're a crafts fanatic like us, you'll probably already know how useful and fun these sheets can be.
