After drilling and threading, a round paper umbrella frame is formed. Then, the fan-shaped tissue paper is glued to the frame piece by piece with cottonseed oil. After being exposed to the sun, it is coated with waterproof tung oil. The oil paper umbrella was successfully made. Paper umbrellas coated with tung oil are both waterproof and can increase the toughness of the tissue paper, making the originally drab and vulgar tissue paper bright and transparent.
