You know the drill by now. I crumpled balls into a torso (upper, right), hips (upper, middle), head (lower, middle), and a couple extras for who knows what. You know I like to have extra paper mache balls around so that I can add details to the project. As usual I used wire clothes hangers to put inside the legs, arms, and in this case the tail. (Did you know that lizard-like lady butterflies have tails? Well, they do.) Sorry, it's hard to see the white clothes hangers clearly.
Here are the crumpled paper arms and legs. I also twisted paper around the wire to make a long, sleek, bifurcated tail.
Here she is after I paper mached all of the parts.
Isn't she beautiful so far?
So why are people still making paper mache piggies? I don't get it.
Thank you for stopping by. See you soon.
