my first mask

it's not finished,(i know i 've made painting mistakes-not contented with that)i want to add eyes and maybe some hear here and there but not sure about the material for that.i read about a polypropylene twine at stolloween's site but nobody knows around here after its name.i know it's made of plastic and i will search again.
i would appreciate v much if you would have any suggestions about the materials witch could compose his hair.
and if i talk about masks i suggest you to take a tour at creaturiste's site-he is one of the best mask maker i know,so you won't regret!

papier mache-hartie "mestecata" sau pasta de hartie

reciclarea hartiei-obiect pentru amuzament,creatie

de la bun inceput trebuie sa marturisesc ca tot ceea ce am invatat despre tehnica
"papier mache"(hartie mestecata sau pulpa de hârtie-da,hârtia a fost mestecată in gură căndva) ( pt ca sint si eu o incepatoare )se datoreaza siteului
www.papiermache.co.uk
aici am citit despre procedeul pastei (pulpei)de hartie ,despre lipicurile care se
folosesc,deasemena vopsele si lacuri cu care se finiseaza micile sau marile proiecte.
sint multe de spus, invat si eu pe parcurs.
Pulpa de hârtie " sau altfel zis "pasta de hartie" se obtine in felul urmator:

-aduni hartiile din casa(cele mai bune sint hartiile fara luciu,cum sunt ziarele "actualiatea
muresana","nepujsag" etc.revistele de tip lucios ca si "ciao" ,"star,pliantele de la banca,orange le pastrezi
pt o alta tehnica,cea praticata de Natasa de expemplu.)

-daca ai copii urmeaza o parte f placuta-aceea a ruperii hartiei in bucati si aruncarea
ei(optionala)spre tavan,procedeu care se perpetuiaza pina la umplerea camerei cu
bucati"cotidiene" ,desigur cu sonorizare- acompaniament cu urlete de bucurie si hohote de
ras.
-daca ai si un sot de treaba sau musafiri nepofiti te pot ajuta la adunarea bucatilor de
hartie cu mare placere

-hartia adunata intr-un vas este umpluta de apa si lasata cam o zi doua la inmuiere

-unii fierb hartia(dupa inmuiere) intr-o oala de presiune veche, cam 30 min.ca sa se mai piarda din elasticitatea fibrelor de hartie.

-dupa fiert si racit se arunca apa de pe hartie si urmeaza cea mai nasoala faza,aceea a ruperii hartiei in bucatele ff mici sau daca ai un mixer "beton"--atenite sa nu arzi motorul,mai ales daca-s neplatite ratele!--pui cam o palma de hartie cu apa din belsug,adica robinet.le mixezi bine pina ce obtii o pasta moale.folosesti o sita pt scurgerea apei,dupa care il storci cu mina cit poti de bine.asta e pasta .

acum urmeaza sa-l depozitezi intr-un loc racoros ,inchis ermetic intr-un recipient de plastic si sa-l amesteci cu un pic de aracet,apara contra mucezirii daca-l vei folosi la o alta data.dar zambeste pasta e gata,urmeaza ketcup-ul,adica lipicul.

pasta obtinuta il poti amesteca cu aracet sau cu home made lipici de casa din faina si apa.
dupa ce amesteci bine pasta cu lipiciul o poti modela dupa cum o doresti-bila,triunghi,oval si alte forme geometrice invatate.

le usuci -cel mai bine la soare sau pe calorifer(unii folosesc si cuptorul cam 20 min.-eu n-am incercat).

dupa ce s-au uscat le vopsesti cu o baza acrilica alba-ex.innenweiss 0,75 l,vopsea lavabila pt interior si papier mache si cumperi pigmenti colorati cam 3 lei bucata pe care le amesteci tot cu baza acrilica pt a obtine diferite nuante.de aici incolo te joci cu culorile.



PS- astept cu nerabdare realizarile voastre,daca mai aveti intrebari va raspund cu placere!

Update : acest link va trimite catre o noua reteta super simpla si rapida--instant mache-cu aspect textural la uscare http://papirildi.blogspot.ro/2015/11/super-reteta-pasta-de-hartie-si-casuta.html

do-re-mi mache: recycled paper beads

do-re-mi mache: recycled paper beads

It's so much fun "playing" with paper.I never tried the "classical" rolling method for creating beads but I've found a great tutorial by natasha and the idea about dipping the beads in resin I love the best.Try out your hand and let your imagination fly (away from it).
I make my beads using paper pulp(lately i recycle used eggs shells witch I like better then newspaper) and acrylics.I seal them after drying with a yacht lac.I also use sand paper to polish ,sometimes sand them and soon I'll try to add wood chippings for a special look...
the following link (paper university)could be very useful for U too if you are already charmed and don't mind glue your hands to make your own beads,earrings.

recycled paper beads












it seams that the "bead fever" caught me badly...beads everywhere and especially in my head...
my dear paper "projects" will have to wait a little ...

paper earrings




Don't be afraid to have fun with the paper.It's cheep and you can find it everywhere.This are my very first paper earrings mostly made from pulp,acrylics and sealer.As a glue I use flour and water mixture.It works very well.
