When I saw this awesome paper mache animal video tutorial by Ultimate Paper Mache on Youtube,  I just fell madly in love with these spectacular animals. The YouTuber in this video tutorial shares her secrets to build these amazing animals from the inside out. In this video tutorial, you will learn how to build the inside frame of your desired animal with cardboard and foil. I must admit, the YouTuber makes this process look completely effortless. Ultimate Paper Mache channel has this follow up to the cardboard form making tutorial, which is the paper mache clay recipe by Ultimate Paper Mache on YouTube. The talented lady at Ultimate Paper Mache makes the most amazing animal sculptures you have ever seen. This is a special recipe that the YouTuber published over ten years ago and is revered the world over. The ingredients are really basic and it differs from traditional paper mache because it uses drywall joint compound. The creator of this recipe always uses toilet paper for this recipe because it is soft and breaks apart beautifully. You can use newspaper, but it has to be soaked for a really long time and then put through a blender, whereas toilet paper can be soaked for a very short period of time and it is ready to go.

Materials:

  • Cardboard
  • Foil
  • An Exacto knife
  • A marker

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
