I have been experimenting with some small papier mache trays. Decorating them is fun and seeing just what it takes to make a good, solid and useful article is interesting.
The above scanned tray is 8" X 12".
This morning Tanya and I moved our exhibition of twenty papier mache masks from the Manzanita Elementary School library to the Turtle Bay Elementary School library.
Most of the students at these schools spend at least one period a week in the library and so they will see these hand-made, one-of-a-kind creations.
Perhaps this experience will show them that costumes and so forth can be hand-made and need not be ready-made merchandise manufactured in China--as so much is nowadays.
