How to make paper mache bowl?


All what you need is: 
- black and white newspaper
-flour
-water
-one bowl
-a plastic bin bag


With this technique you can make anything you want, and this material is perfect for use any decoration technique on it. 

Take your bowl and cover it with your bin bag. Fix it with a knot and put it to some newspaper. This will be messy.






Mix some water with flour in a short bowl and mix it as it looks like pancake.













 Torn into strips the newspaper, put them into the mix, and then put it to the surface.




You have to do this untill the all surface is totally filled.




You need to make 8 layer to make a strong bowl, easier if you use two different color of newspaper. I used a simple copy paper wich is also good to finish the bowl, because you don't need to use basic paint after it. Between two or three layer take some break as it's drying, try to avoid to make it too wet.














If it's dry, you can simply paint it with spray paint, but now i used decoupage technique. You need a decoupage glue, a brush and some napkin.
