What Are Paper Mache Masks?
Paper mache masks are decorative face coverings made from molded newspaper and crafting embellishments. Mask making is a popular grade school art project, as it is a fun and inexpensive way for children to express their creativity. The primary supplies needed to create paper mache masks are an easy-to-make flour-based paste, plenty of newspaper, empty one-gallon milk jugs, scissors, and a craft knife. Once the masks’ structure has set, they can be decorated with embellishments such as paint, glitter, beads, and feathers.
