Contemporary Papier Mache: Colorful Sculpture, Jewelry, and Home Accessories

My son was applying to high school and we needed a 3D piece for his portfolio. He settled on papier mache and off he went. The projects were all doable and the images were very crisp and inspiring. He didn't copy what he saw in the book, but it gave him the skills to create a piece that won everyone over. I've never seen him work so hard on anything before and since this was such a slow process, it was a teachable moment; plan, plan and plan. I hope when he gets to high school, he'll have the opportunity to do more papier mache work. It allowed him to let his creativity show.Great how to book and I highly recommend it.

This is a lovely book both for the professional artist or the beginner. I am an artist but have never tried paper mache and this book gives easy to follow instructions and beautiful images of the finished works.I can't wait to have a go and I think that's a pretty good recommendation of a book that gives you the inspiration to create immediately!Obviously you can interpret the works with your own artistic flair and who knows where that can take you!

Wonderful book and was deliveried before I blinked my eyes. I look forward to using this book for many years in my ART ROOM< I AM A WONDERFUL ART TEACHER, and this helps me to be even "more betta"---YES Sock it to me, sock it to me. :--)

I was hoping to get some useful information from this, but it is really just for kids who aren't allowed to use the internet. everything in this book and more can be found online, for free. Disappointing.

As a paper mache fan, this book is easy to read, great photos and has a project for every skill level. This book shows you how to make the pulp and the process of making the project. This book is a must have.

I haven't ever done paper mache but its on my bucket list. I'm still deciding what my 1st attempt should be.

fast and quick delivery. Just as described. glad to have the book

excellent book. It arrived ahead of schedule. Thanks

Some exciting projects in here, especially the figures on the front cover, which can be customised to suit whatever characters you want to make. Clear colour illustrations.

Few papier mache books I bought have managed to inspire me but this one did! Fun projects to make which are well illustrated and explained. The beauty of this book is that whilst showing you some examples of what you can make, its clear explanations allow you to extrapolate and make your own design using their technique.Brilliant for beginners!

Disappointed this is not in colour as expected for the cost.

Really like the projects style and layout Haven't yet attempted any but will do so.

This book is full of lots of great ideas. Its Ideal for those who have just started to do Papier Mache. Well written and full of good information regarding different techniques.
