Paper Mache Pigs

Yep! We made paper mache pigs in 3D art class at the Y! Simple and messy!

Steps:

1. Blow up a balloon
2. Mix flour and water to the consistency of a thick paste
3. Rip up strips of newspaper.... LOTS
4. Taking one strip at a time- dip it in your paste and put it on the balloon
5. Create a thick layer around your balloon
6. Let dry 
7. Add another layer of paper mache (optional- it will make your form stronger)
8. Let dry
9. Add on features like Styrofoam cups for the nose and legs- using masking tape
10. Paint form
11. Let dry
12. Add eyes, ears, and a tail (we used paper and a pipe cleaner)
