In many ways, paper mache is a lot of fun. This material can be used to make numerous crafts and gifts that people of all ages will enjoy. If you have some spare time and you want to make something truly unique, this article will teach you how to make paper mache earrings without a lot of extra fuss. To begin, you will need to gather some old newspaper cut into strips, some acrylic paint, tapestry needles, brushes, string, darning needles, poster paint, and mache paste.
The first thing that you will have to do is mix the mache according to the box instructions. Then, dip the strips of newspaper into the mixture and coat both sides of it. Next, roll the paper into a ball and pack it firmly between your hands. Repeat this process numerous times until you have used all of the paper. Allow the paper to dry for about three hours before you pick it up again. After three hours have elapsed, place the needle through the ball and create a hole. Then, allow the paper to dry for up to ten hours longer.
Once your balls are dry, you can paint them with either type of paint. Make sure to get every side of the ball in order to really help that paint stand out. When you are done painting, thread the balls with the string until you have as many as you want on one string. Then, tie a knot into the bottom of the string and secure the last bead. When you are done, attach an earring backing to the rope and tie tightly. If you want, make a necklace using the remaining beads. Now that you know how to make paper mache earrings, you can pass this project technique on to those around you.
