About this deal

Next you will need is strips of newspaper/ any paper strips (we have used tissue paper before too) and you are ready to go! I have a project in my mind that I’m trying to figure out how to execute. I ultimately need a “globe” shape but I want it to end up with lot of “holes” through which air and light can pass. And I do not intend to use a “globe” that is closed at the bottom in my project; I need more of an upside down bowl that looks like 80% of a “globe”. I’m planning to permanently glue molded Baroque lace elements onto the surface of the “globe” such that the elements connect with one another in a cohesive pattern. I can use hot glue and a cake decorating silicon mold to make the lace elements, and I can glue the various elements together with more hot glue as I assemble the design on the curved surface of the “globe”. Then I want to remove the parts of the “globe” that aren’t needed to support the interconnected lace elements. I’m thinking I can cut the paper mache with an Exacto knife where it doesn’t support a lace element and remove the debris through the open bottom of the decorated “globe”, Is this a good plan or should I be thinking of the “globe” as a totally destructible intermediate step, and count on the just the hot glue bonds between the lace elements to support the final airy product? If I took that second approach, I guess I’d need to soak the whole assembly in water until I could get the paper mache to dissolve, Any advice on which plan is likely to get better results would be appreciated.

Be sure to clean the bowl and utensils before the paste has time to dry – it will dry very hard. That’s good for paper mache, but not so good for the person washing the dishes. As mentioned you can add a tablespoon of salt or two and that can help preserve it for longer. Having said that, (and as mentioned earlier), I still have a paper mache piggy bank, that I made well over 20years ago at summer camp. And no salt was added to that! How to make Paper Mache Paste (Recipe with Flour) Methylcellulose paste– In the past I often recommend Elmer’s Art Paste for school classes, because you can make up a gallon of the paste in advance, and it never gets moldy. It’s also gluten-free, so you don’t have to worry about your students’ allergies. I do think that this is stronger than bonding glue or modpodge and I love that this recipe is natural and biodegradable. The natural starch in the flour simply is amazing! And it is fantastic how it results in qiute a hard material! Stove Top Paper Mache Paste DIY NOTE: Some people prefer it more paste like.. but I like it a little “runnier” (not too runny mind you). It really is a question of preference.

Acrylic Gel can be used as paste. This is the product that I use when I add colored tissue paper as a final layer over a paper mache sculpture. You do need to make sure the paper mache underneath is completely dry, because the acrylic medium could dry first and seal moisture inside. To make a cup of “cooked” paper mache paste with flour and water, you need roughly 2 tablespoons of white flour and 1 cup of water. The initial water temperature doesn’t matter as you will be using heat soon.

Is PVA glue or flour better for paper mache?Make up just enough for one sculpting session. This is good advice for any paste made with wheat flour. Wild yeast is attracted to flour (that’s how sourdough bread is made.) To make the paste, just pour some white flour in a bowl. Add hot water gradually until you have a consistency that will work well. Mix with a spoon or whisk. If you have one, an immersion blender works great).
