Explanation

'Made of' is used if the material of which the thing is made can still be seen while 'made from' if the material can no longer be seen. For example: Table is made of wood. It means, the wood can still be seen in 'table'. Bread is usually made from wheat. It means that you can no longer see the wheat in the 'bread'. Therefore, paper is made from wood pulp because you cannot see the wood again in 'paper'.
