@LJL bruh u wierd plus that meme is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo dead stupid
@@ljl9552 what the heck đĄđĄ
excuse my ignorance, but doesn't this grow mold?
Solution: use the flour on the inside for structure and glue on the outside for the smoothness etc. That is of course if you're doing more than 1 layers :)
You mean you straight up out glue on the planet or use glue on the paper later?
@@majoka4853 on paper later, for second/last later. Not tried tho
my mom use to mix glue and flour method and then sanded it when dry. she made bowls and boxes and furniture.
great minds think alike
Ty that rlly helps

Fyi: you can use pepper as an alternative to salt in the recipe. It might taste different though
Lol I just watched a tutorial where someone used cracked pepper in homemade paper clay to get a speckled stone texture on a diy vase
You don't eat paper mache lol

Don't forget the onions
Flour/water paste is a lot smoother if you a) used about a quarter of the flour, b) Make a well in the flour, pour a little water into the well and gradually incorporate flour from around the sides, adding more water as needed then lumps should not form but if they do, either strain or blitz the mixture until it's completely lump free c) Keep adding water until the mixture is quite thin in viscosity then d) boil the mixture until it's translucent. e) leave to cool down. You'll be surprised how a little flour goes a long way and how much more pleasant it is to work with warm paste than cold, especially on a cool day.
Put a marble in the balloon before you blow it up so it will help keep it steady when you apply the first few strips :) I had no idea you could paper mache with flour. Thanks for sharing !
..."marble in the gallon 1st!.đđđđŻ
**GENIUS**
I've made this project a million times (with the flour mixture) and never once though of this! Thanks for the tip!!:
Hey , do you have to wait for it to dry to do the other strips ?
Gabriela Fitz you donât just keep applying if using the flour mixture then it should take like two hours and you only need one Layer but if using the glue it will take like three or four layers
Came to get piñata tips. Going to make one that looks like a coronavirus germ so we can beat the hell out of it at my daughter's graduation party.
Linda williams Your comment made my day đđ
Haha, I'm doing that toođ
lol
Make sure you have gloves and masks in there along with the candy lol !
Linda, did you do it?!!
If you're going to be storing your flour-based project somewhere that it may be susceptible to mice, like a garage, throw a bit of cayenne pepper into the flour mixture as well, that helps deter the paper predators! :)
Wow!! Thanks for sharing that bit if info!! I know in places in the kitchen you want to keep mice away you can place a dry basil leaf. Mice HATE Basil!!
Some people use copper sulphate to flour
Always told as a kid If you do your first layer with just wet paper, it releases from the balloon or mould alot easier when dry. Nice vid
GREAT tip. Thank you!
That makes a lot of sense, thanks for the tip.
For the flower recipe,you can take a damp sponge to wipe away access paste to make it smooth, and I put a few coats of mod podge to strengthen it after it dries
Okay wait, do I wipe it while the paste is wet or do I wait for it to dry?
@@mikayladenton8600 whilst itâs wet đ
If I remember correctly, it's a smoother transition from piece to piece if you use torn pieces of paper.
I remember hearing this...

No, for a home project

DYING over the newspaper's "have SEX again" title on your green glue balloon. Ha! I didn't leave with those kind of tips, but thank you so much for reminding me how easy it is to make paper mache!
so funny`!!! I wonder if she meant it!
I seen that too hilarious
@@smilenbhappy2763 I saw that too!! haha
I looked for comments about it after I seen it on the video lol
Same
I hands down prefer the glue recipe. I apply the glue with a brush...much faster and neater than dipping the paper strip and then wiping it off with fingers. Also, for me the glue method dries much, much faster than the flour recipe does...but instead of Elmer's school glue I used Alene's, and it was thinned a little more than in this video. Use the brush to smooth out the paper on your armature, as you work the glue gives the paper more elasticity than the flour recipe and results in a much smoother surface...that's been my experience. Yeah, you do have to apply more layers, but for me it's far more worth the effort. I'll only add that every artist/crafts person develops their own method...so don't hesitate to experiment to achieve what suits you best.
tinkmarz1 Iâve been doing the same as you - pva plus some water and applied with a brush. The brush gets rid of any air bubbles and the result is quite smooth. Itâs been a successful method for me. Also I canât stand that gloopy flour mixture! Ugh!
@@debracarter7290 Yep...we're on the same page with this. If it weren't for the Aleene's/pva glue method I probably wouldn't even bother...lol...! I've also used cold porcelain (the no cook recipe) to cover for an extra smooth surface or sculpting detail. After the surface is dry, just brush some of the water/pva mix, apply the cold porcelain and smooth and work it, and dip brush or fingers in water/pva to help spread it. Don't stretch too much without working more water/pva into it...as it will probably crack as it dries. Speaking of cold porcelain, experimenting around I mixed some silicone caulk with corn starch and got a clay that when dry was very flexible felt like leather. Problem was, there's only about a 15 minute time frame to work with it before it's set. I wonder if adding a few drops of glycerine would extend working time (?). I also tried mixing pva glue with water putty (wood filler, powder form) and got a rock hard substance...problem again, dries too fast to make a large amount. I'm pretty sure adding water would probably extend the drying time...but never experimented any further with that, either. I thought maybe those two recipes might help you or someone else in experimenting in their creative journey. Whatever, good luck...!

If you use cold water it will be less likely to clump up. When I make my flour and water roux for gravy I always use cold water and I have no lumps in my gravy.
@@justanotheruser8179 the flour glue is essentially a basic batter
Who asked if you eat flour?! đđđ

thx man
She says that in the video
"use a bowl you can throw away" *me using my paper mache bowl.*
thank you, looks like a nice easy way to have a go at a sculpture project I want to try. No fancy materials. I appreciate the clear explanations Kristin. Thank you!
I prefer flour and newspaper. I need the firmness. I tried a recipe online that suggested glue and paper towel. All was a waste for me. I've used flour and newspaper in the past and it worked wonderfully. Thanks on the salt tip. We're making the solar system so the bumps won't hurt! Subscribed! đ
Great video. I didn't realize the salt was to prevent molding. I live in a super arid and dry climate and have not done that but I also do just the glue method with water. I don't use warm water but that makes way more sense to help in getting the mixture mixed. Love all these tips!
Thank you, this is the best and easiest recipe I've found so far that actually works!
Boooooooiooooiioo
Absolutely fantastic video. So helpful! Thank you for taking the time to work it out before the video and sharing your experience. Excited to try!
Professional cooks know that to get a smooth flour mix easily you start with COLD water then when smooth add hot water to thicken .
I appreciate you commenting this đ
And you do consider yourself a professional cook, Mr. Ed Lechleiter?
Actually you can use warm tap water, you just can't use hot water or you will get clumps. I'm not a professional chef but I'm an old lady who has cooked for years. â€ïž From West by-God Virginia

â@@glinda9243 ah spoken as a true NORTHERN Virginia native.
Years ago my mother-in-law taught me the flour method, I made frog heads for Halloween costumes! They lasted for years and made great memories for my daughter and her cousin!
Wonderful job with this video, Kristin. You are so personally engaging and bright, it is fun to watch. I wanted to say, and you probably know - one can sand the roughness off the dried flour papier mache with very fine sandpaper.
I like to use the flour glue that you boil. I made many projects with it and by putting at least 4 to 5 layers, I got a very hard surface that could crack a skull. I made doll rocks for doll photography to vessels (bowls). They were a lot of fun and very messy. My flour vases or bowls I would put in the oven for an hour or two at 100 degrees to aid in drying and yes, it was fun and gave me many ideas..
Ha e you found a way to waterproof these yet?
@@nowirehangers2815 I use this process for outdoor/weatherproof statues but I substitute cement mix for the flour. Its about $3 a bag so the cost is about the same and I have used strips of old fabric instead of paper with great results. the glue is still added, it helps with adhesion. I do prefer wood glue, it dries more quickly and harder but school glue works also.
@@SpecsAppeal thatâs very clever
Thank you
@@SpecsAppeal Can you give a basic "recipe" for the CEMENT/WATER/GLUE proportions?
thanks!
Great video! I'm sure it's been mentioned, but wallpaper paste is cheap and excellent for paper mache, or even flour and wallpaper paste together if you want to combine materials. The process is very forgiving, so it's not necessarily either-or: if you want more hardness to the final product you can add some glue to the flour mixture (don't skip the salt, though, for the reasons you mentioned!). Also, don't use whole wheat or grainy flours - just regular all-purpose stuff. If you are using cloth instead of paper, then adding some white glue is probably a good idea for the added stiffness.
Yessss!! this video was very informative and your delivery was direct and super easy to understand. Thank youuuu!!!
I think it's clear
First apply flour
Then apply glue
Oz DeVil I was thinking about doing this!
Thats a better idea. Thank you!
That what I was thinking to Iâm going to try that.
That's what I do. The flour is easier to remove balloon.
Thank you so much Kristin! I find out that using the flour method with a brush instead of dipping each paper piece in it is less messier than glue.
Thanks for this tip! I can just see wet flour flying all over the place with the kids. We'll try the brushes!
Great tutorial. I've done both & basically came up with the same results. I subscribed as soon as it was done. Waiting to see what else u can teach me.đ€đđŸââïž
Iâm your opinion, which one would work best if Iâm wanting to break it open?(sort of like a piñata) for a gender reveal
Incredibly clear and useful video, thank you so much! Was contemplating ordering some new glue today but instead I can just try the flour recipe later on. :)

Great advise exactly what I needed. I always wonder about mold adding salt makes sense. Thank you
The fabric covered bowl at the end is gorgeous! Thanx for the video :)
This is one of the best videos ive seen. You answered all the questions a beginner has. Well done
Love the helpful suggestions from the viewers. Thank you. đ
"Great topic, simple instructions and nice craft work!.đđ
Interesting video. I made paper mache as a child (im in my 50s) and still remember this way of doing it. I have never added salt, but good tip. Also, if you use a little larger container to mix, and use a whisk, it mixes so much faster and easier.
Love this!! Thank you so much for this comparison. I'm doing the glue recipe đ€
Thanks for taking the time Kirstin. Nice job.
I've been struggling with paper mache for a while this tutorial helped me a lot. Thank you for making this video
This is so helpful, at last! Our balloons never peel off the glue ones, they always make the whole thing collapse when we try to remove the balloons đ may be we've been doing the glue mixture too thin, like you say, most recipes say 50/50 glue to water. Will try with thicker glue mixture and also we'll try with flour. Thank you, so helpful.
You might need to do a couple more layers, or try smaller/thinner strips of a thicker paper (like notebook, magazine pages or an old book) sandwiched between the thinner newspapers. I do remember that you get a smoother transition from piece to piece if the paper is torn.
I saw another video where they did one layer with just water and immediately after one layer of straight glue. At the end, the balloon came right off. I wonder if it came off easily because the first layer was just water?
@The singing barmaid ⊠you didnât let it dry long enough is why it collapsed, I had one to do that ..
Really liked the video, thanks. My high school art teacher made us use this stuff and it was like a dream come true to be able to create anything I dreamt of. Many years later I finally remembered the name đ I'll be buying the material tomorrow after work
This video was super super helpful!! The pros and cons at the end were great!! Thanks so much!
love this and I'm going to try this out - thanks for the inspo!
If the paste is thin, it only becomes a problem if you apply over three layers per session. If you use the traditional glue recipe you need to apply 3 layers at most, wait a day or so for them to completely dry and then apply the next 3. If you need to apply many layers for structural support, apply the paper mache 3 layers at a time. That way the base will not collapse and drying will happen all the way to the coreâșïž
Wow, thank you for sharing. Very helpful and insightful. Awesome.
Thank you for sharing :) I will try a project myself sometime using this recipe
Good information, thanks for sharing your video with us!
Thank you for the pros and cons! I am wanting to try the glue one! Yay!
Excellent video showing pros and cons. Thanks for the demo of each
This is an awesome video honey - love!
Great review and tips!
Love your artwork and those baby blues!
Thank you for sharing! xoxo
The flour adds a bit of structure with the stringy gluten proteins
Matthew did you try this recipe? How did you like it?
this was the perfect video to figure out which method i wanted to to use for my sculpture class!!!
Iâm planning to make a mask for a original character cosplay and this help so much! Thank you!
Cornflour paste is my go-to, cook it until it goes slightly translucent. It's not as messy, holds very strong, keeps about a week in the fridge, dries clear, & then your project is compostable if it's a temporaary decoration you don't want to store.
Very clear, very useful! Thanks!
This is gonna help with my halloween costume and/or cosplay! Thanks I've never done it right in my own lol
This was so helpful! Thank you! :)
Great comparison. Thank you. =)
and great project ideas. =)
Hey, thanks for this great video. I did the glue version for a piñata for a kids birthday... And it was a success.. Thank you for sharing... now i will become the piñata-maker for the partiessss!!!

Great that you took the time to do an objective comparison. Thanks.
Thanks for the really helpful comparison!!
I had never been able to pull this off until I watched your video, thanks a bunch! đ»
We get told in school not to use throw away plates. My sister said the same thing. If you wash it after it's better for the environment.
Laughed so hard at the 2nd strip she placed for glue part. "Have sex again" lmfao
Yup....didnât notice that till after it was uploaded đđđ
THANK YOU!! I tried following some online recipes and it totally fell apart. This is so helpful.
This video is exactly what I needed, thanks!
You can use sandpaper to smoothe out any roughness. I use a super fine grit for my paper mache projects.
Can I sand paper a newspaper sphere using the glue method too?
â@@chibidragon4047 i think if you used pva glue it wouldn't work but i heard if you used wood glue like tidebond it would work
@@csgotrollling4 yeah I learned it the hard way. But it's cool.
@@chibidragon4047 thats unfortunate
Thanks for the helpful video. FYI in the video it says 1 cup of water to 1 cup of glue, but as you pointed out in the video you actually used 1 cup of glue and 1/2 cup of water.
. .thank you. .this tutorial is very helpful!!! You just told us what was the exact amount needed in order to make the right mixture. !!!
Cheap bowl from Dollar Tree would make mixing a lot easier.
Thank you! Awesome video.
Thank you. It was really frustrating making things and foe them to go mouldy. Salt preserves, excellent. Wonderful video, thanks for sharing, and fantastic Art pieces.
Thank you for this
"have sex again" on the glue method soooo..
I'm guessing the glue mix is best.
Also thank you, I've forgotten how to paper machete đŠ

THANK YOU!! Iâve needed this so much for my Halloween costume!!! (Mushroom elf)
thanks for this, I think I'm gonna use the flour method since it's more durable and I don't need a ton of papers. It's perfect for my son's project đ
Thnx Kristin.... , For the Recipes..... The Bowl looks Georgeous
I enjoyed this video! I am attempting to make a large spider body with chicken wire and paper mache for Halloween. It will have fun noodle legs and red glowing eyes. Thanks to your video, I decided to use the flour rather than the glue because the flour will be stronger and I will also be using Drylock for added strength and durability. Thanks again for making this video. It was very helpful!â€
Wonderful art!
Thankyou for this video I was debating on which way to go but this helped so much!!!! Thankyou!!!
Thank you!! I was wondering about the differences between the two for my daughters mask
Thank You for the video. You did a GREAT job.
Great video thanks đ, you answered all my questions.
OMG I LOVE LOVE LOVE THE GRUMPY/SCARY PUMPKINS AT THE END!!!!
Thank you so much for this! I am making the Loki helmet for Halloween and I just couldn't get the horns right. First I used aluminum foil and wrapped it is clay to smooth it, but the clay cracked. I also tried to make them entirely out of foam, but that didnt work for me either. Then I tried the floor method to wrap aluminum foil with and it worked amazingly! Now I have light and smooth horns to use for my Halloween costume. Thank you!
