Papier mache is so much fun and so versatile! We papier mached around balloons with three layers, then decorated with acrylic paint. The basket is made from juice cartons. Brilliant work!

This beautiful piece was made by “coiling” – a technique used for hand-crafting clay pots and objects. Lovely work, Hana!

Made with heavy paper clay, acrylic paint and clear vanish.

First, we stretched some plastic kitchen film onto a cardboard frame, which we cut earlier. Then sandwiched the film between two cardboard frames.

Next, Yamato drew the pictures onto the film with pens and markers and filled in with acrylic paint. This scene is made with 3 separate cells. It looks great! Well done, Yamato!
