Paper Mache Recipes

RE: Paper Mache Recipes By fuzzytufts (29) Profile Contact In scouts last year we made 2 paper Mache santa clauses and we used school glue and water to thin it to a soupy mix smeared our hands and 20 kids hands into it with strips of paper and stuck it on...letting it dry between coats. Worked great. As for the flour if you have to cook it u must use cold water to mix the flour and water and on med. heat constantly stirring get it hot enough to thicken to the consistency you wish. Then you have to let it cool some so you or the kids don't get burned..

Any answers will be appreciated. Posted on 08/31/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Paper Mache Recipes By louel53 (626) Contact I have used several different things. Diluted white glue is the easiest.

Its the cheapest ans simplest way to make the paper mache. Then you just tear strips of newspaper to dip in the bowl. I like to get large oval balloons and then make Pinatas out of them.

Thanks, Luna from Seattle Answers: RE: Paper Mache Recipes I haven't tried this myself, but I recently watched a program on HGTV where they used liquid starch for paper mache. It seemed much less messy than anything I've ever tried. (10/30/2005) By Barbara RE: Paper Mache Recipes I use diluted white glue for my paper mache. I seems to work well.
