This book features 25 creative projects that are shown step by
step. In this book, the versatile art of papier-mache is brought to
life in 25 innovative, yet achievable projects for the home. There
are elegant ideas for pots, vases and bowls, plus a rococo screen,
an embellished chair and a charming Mexican doll. It features over
250 photographs that show exactly how to achieve every project,
with a beautiful shot of each finished piece. It explains all the
techniques, equipment and know-how to produce professional-looking
finishes, plus inspiring examples from historical and contemporary
designers. It comes with photography by Peter Williams, the highly
regarded craft, cooking and lifestyle photographer. If the idea of
creating something special from next to nothing appeals to you,
then papier-mache is the ideal craft. A pile of old newspapers,
some glue and a couple of pots of paint are, surprisingly, almost
all you need to create the 25 inspired ideas presented in this
book. Objects both large and small range from traditional vases,
bowls and frames to more unusual items such as a kaleidoscopic room
divider, exotic blind pulls and a Cinderella chair.A techniques
section introduces the beginner to making paper pulp, building
armatures, layering, cutting and drying. For today's designers
conscious of recycling, papier-mache is the perfect medium to
express creativity without the worry of waste and expense, and the
subtle, sophisticated finishes shown in this book are perfect for
the modern home.
