Paper mache is easy to make, hard material that can be used to cover various surfaces. It is often used in arts and crafts to make various sculptures, fruit bowls, puppets, dolls and much more. The surface is easy to paint, allowing you to add patterns, bright colors, and interesting designs to your finished product.
A. PAPER STRIP PROCES:
You need to use strips of newspaper only, or even paper tissues or towels.
Let the newspaper strips soak in the paper mache glue a little before using.
Cover your artwork with only 2-3 layers, then let dry completely. This is an important step.
Once a layer is dry you can add 2-3 more layers, remembering to let each layer dry before adding the next one.
The final layer can be plain paper so it's easier to paint but use the thinnest paper possible and make sure it's soaked well in the paper mache glue.
