Subject: PUPT: Papier Mache Pulp


This is for a workshop for 8-11 year-olds. We'll be making some small rod
puppets with springs for the arms and legs, and papier mache pulp, or clay,
for the head, body, hands and feet.

Has anyone worked with papier mache pulp?
How easy is it to make and work with?
How long would small bits (thumb-sized) take to dry? (we have hours, to
overnight if necessary. )
Would it be better to use a fast-drying clay?



Curious,
Aoife
