INGREDIENTS
- OLD (NEWS)PAPERS (RIPPED TO PIECES)
- PAPIER MARCHE GLUE OR WHEAT FLOUR + WATER
- BASE SHAPE: WIRE MASH OR CARDBOARD SHAPES OR BLOWN UP BALLOONS OR WHATEVER WORKS
- MASKING TAPE, IF NEEDED
- DECORATION: PAINT OR MARKERS OR WHATEVER YOU LIKE

CREATE THE GLUE FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS OF THE PAPER MACHE PACKAGE, OR MIX PROPORTIONALLY 1 CUP OF FLOUR WITH 1 1/2 CUP OF LUKE WARM WATER.

PREPARE YOUR BASIC SHAPE (USE MASKING TAPE IF NEEDED). MAKE SURE ITS BIG ENOUGH TO BE PLACE OVER SOMEONE'S HEAD/FACE.

START SPREADING A LAYER OF GLUE (NOT TOO THICK, NOT TOO THIN) ON YOUR BASIC SHAPE, NOW ADD THE PIECES OF RIPPED PAPER ON TOP. CONTINUE DOING THIS UNTILL YOU COVERED THE WHOLE BASIC SHAPE.

NOW, YOUR FIRST LAYER IS READY. CONTINUE CREATING MULTIPLE LAYERS USING THE SAME TECHNIQUE, THIS ADDS STRENGTH TO YOUR MASK.

LET IT DRY AT LEAST 24 HRS.

CHECK IF SHAPE IS STRONG, IF NOT, ADD MORE LAYERS USING THE SAME TECHNIQUE AND LET IT DRY AGAIN.

NOW IT'S TIME TO DECORATE YOUR MASK IN ANY WAY YOU WANT.
DON'T FORGET TO CUT OUT A HOLE FOR THE HEAD. IT HELPS TO MAKE A LITTLE STRAIGHT INCISION CUT IN THE BACK LEADING TO THE HOLE, TO ADD MORE FLEXIBILITY WHEN PUTTING ON THE MASK

THAT'S IT!

TIP: KNOW YOU CAN ALWAYS ADD LITTLE SHAPES TO YOUR BASIC SHAPE USING A BIT OF MASKING TAPE AND PAPER MACHE-ING OVER IT TO CONNECT THE PIECES.

YOU'RE NOW ABLE TO HOST A MASKED DISCUSSION, ENJOY!
