Recipe for Paper-mache

Materials Needed:  

Newspapers,

Flour,  

Water,

Mixing bowl,  

Tempera paint,

Materials for form: such as balloons, grocery bags filled with crumpled papers.

Directions:

Tear long newspaper strips about one to two inches wide.  

Use your form such as the balloon.

Blow up the balloon or put crumbled newspaper in a brown bag and shape the bag.

When you choose your shape, remember you will have to remove your form when the project is complete so cover your form with plastic beforehand (a plastic grocery bag).  If you are using a balloon, you can just pop the balloon.  

  In a mixing bowl, combine water and flour until you have a paste that's thin enough to coat the paper strips.

Experiment first with some small quantities first. If the mixture is too thin, the paper will turn into a soggy mush.

Dip the paper into the paste and use your index finger and middle finger to act like a squeegee to run down the strip of paper.

Place the strip on your form, crisscrossing to make overlapping layers.

When you are done, place in a warm, dry area to dry.

Once the design is completely dry  

remove form by cutting a slit in the bottom of the form and pulling out form, or pop the balloon.

Decorate with tempera paint.

Answer 5

Answer 7

I just saw a show on DIY TV about papermache. You can use flour and water, ( which I always used ) but they said it takes longer to dry. They showed using white school glue, (Elmer's or a generic brand) add just a little water to make it thin enough to dip and coat your strips of newspaper. They showed sliding the dipped strip between two fingers to renove excess glue, and put it where you need it. You might be able to go to DIY website and veiw this show. I once made my kids Smurf heads for halloween using blow-up punch balls. Over 25 yrs ago. They got the prize!!!

Good Luck
