Please check the news page for regular updates.

Welcome to our site and thank you for visiting. I hope you have many happy hours creating the projects you will find on the site, and that we can inspire you to experiment with your own designs and ideas.
Paper mache is a wonderful medium to create with. It's very versatile and, if handled well, will create a very strong and durable artwork.
But it's not just about paper. We use all kinds of junk. Things that would normally be thrown away can be used to make armatures which are then covered in paper mache to make the final piece.
Paper mache can be as simple or as complex as you want to make it. Simple shapes covered with a few layers of paper and decorated can make beautiful works of art.
On the other hand, if you enjoy working with large or more intricate structures, you can create some amazing objects. I know someone who created a life-size camel!
The uses for paper mache are endless. You can decorate your home with it, or create stage props and scenery. You can sell it at art and craft shows or just make unusual and unique gifts for friends and family.
Whatever you choose to do, we hope you enjoy your creative time and that you have many happy hours making your art.
Enjoy the site.
