  • This was an easy project, and I know I'll be using this yarn bowl for years. In fact, I'll make myself a few more, because I'm trying to learn how to do Tunisian crochet with multiple color yarns, and that means more yarn bowls to keep them from getting tangled up. If you'd like to see screen-shots and written instructions, you can find them here: www.ultimatepa...
    If you know anyone who knits or crochets, this would make a lovely gift, especially if you personalize your yarn bowl by painting it with their favorite colors - or maybe a drawing of a kitten chasing yarn? That would be fun. 😄

I would also like one with paintings on of your animal sculptures. that would be interesting to see. I just thought too that a piece of fabric with your animal heads printed on would be really fun to use, maybe on an upholstered chair in a child's nursery or a bedspread.

      I found some of those kitty bowls when I did a google image search for yarn bowl. If you have a really narrow area without much support, you might need to run a light wire around the edges of the ears before you add your paper mache clay. Good luck with it! 😀

    Thank you so much for your videos, I can't tell you how much I appreciate these tutorials - they are exactly the tools I have needed for my work.
    I have a question for you - I create more abstract/organic sculptural forms and I am wondering if you have any suggestions for doing something like this that could be fully enclosed. For example, something like you did in this video, but maybe a full globe. I imagine I would make two bowls and then join them together somehow, but do you have any tips for combining the two seamlessly? Also in a way that would be structurally sound, since I could only do it from one side?
    Lastly - if I wanted to drill a hole in it after the fact, is there anything in particular I should keep in mind in terms of structure/preventing damaging?
    Sorry for the long winded message, hopefully it all makes sense. I so appreciate all the knowledge you have shared!

    • @UltimatePaperMache
      @UltimatePaperMache  2 года назад

      Hi Allie. I made a globe with plaster cloth and paper mache over a rubber ball, and it worked well. I didn't cut it apart to get the ball out, but that would be possible by cutting the plaster cloth globe in half. You've need to reinforce the seam with more plaster cloth, of course. If you make the form with two bowls you can then put the two sides together the same way. If the sculpture will stay in the house, you can then use the paper mache clay to smooth the surface. The fibers in the plaster cloth add a lot of structural strength, even if you cut holes in it, but if you're looking for something that would be super-strong, you could use a thin layer of epoxy clay over the plaster cloth instead of paper mache clay.

      @@Allie.Kushnir Yes, you'd want to wait for it to dry. The plaster cloth will fray and you'll get plaster dust flying around, so be sure to do it outside or over a piece of plastic. When you put the pieces back together again the little threads that will stick out will get covered up, and the piece should be quite strong.

      It's working OK for me, but some other folks have suggested that it should be heavier. I think you could make the bottom heavier by pouring in some plaster of Paris before adding the paper mache clay. I haven't tried it yet, though. I'm going to make another one tomorrow and test it, just to see if it works without getting wet plaster of Paris all over my studio floor... 😄

    Hola , están increibles todas sus creaciones 😍😍 no me imaginé que se pudiera hacer tantas cosas simplemente con papel !
    Y me gustaría intentarlo!
    Por lo que entiendo ( me confundo aveces ya que está en ingles 😬) le hacen "el esqueleto" eh visto que lo hacen con cartón o alambre y para proyectos más grandes usan madera o metal, no sé cuál sea mejor , también eh visto que le ponen ¿malla??
    Después se le da volumen rellenandolo con papel o aluminio y muchaaaa cinta adhesiva , y después le ponen varias capas de papel maché en tiritas al que le hechan ¿Agua y pegamento? O ví una mezcla que decía agua con harina??
    Y para hacerle detalles como los músculos de los animales que le pone? Más papel o masa de papel maché?? Y cuando está terminado ¿Se lija para que quede liso? ¿O hay alguna otra técnica? ¿Cómo cuántas capas de papel maché utiliza?? Tengo muchas preguntas 😅 también eh visto que utilizan una masa??? Para hacer la forma de la cara??? No entendí muy bien esa parte, y en qué casos se utiliza la masa de papel maché y en cuál solo las tiritas de papel maché? Y como le añada el "pelo" a los animales
    Espero q me pueda entender y responder mis dudas 🥺🥺🥺🥺 me gustaría hacer una jirafa y otros animales 😍

    • @UltimatePaperMache
      @UltimatePaperMache  3 года назад +1

      The plaster cloth reinforces the paper mache clay and makes a hollow shape really strong. You could probably put a layer of paper mache clay directly over the plastic wrap and then reinforce it with cheesecloth. After the first layer is dry you would add another layer of paper mache over it. Or experiment - it's even possible that the paper mache clay would be strong enough all by itself. I just haven't tried it, because the plaster cloth method is so easy.

    Great tutorial as always. Btw, since your paper mache clay is very strong, may I apply it directly on the bowl (covered with cling wrap) without plaster cloth?

    • @UltimatePaperMache
      @UltimatePaperMache  3 года назад

      I don't know. I used the plaster cloth because the paper mache clay will normally shrink (and crack) when it's placed over a solid form like a bowl. When it's applied over plaster cloth that doesn't happen. If you put it on the inside of the bowl instead of the outside, it might work - but I don't know how strong it would be, because I haven't tested it. Go ahead and play with it, and let us know how your experiments turn out. 😄

    A good yarn bowl needs to have a little weight to it so that it doesn’t move around. I’m wondering how heavy your bowl came out. Could your make the flat bottom thicker if you needed to make it heavier?

    • @UltimatePaperMache
      @UltimatePaperMache  3 года назад +1

      Good point! The easiest way to make the base heavier would be to pour some plaster of Paris in the bottom of the bowl. After it hardens and dries, you could cover it with the paper mache clay, or just add a few coats of varnish. If my bowl moves around when I use it, I will try that and see if it works. 😀

      No, you don't need to use the plaster cloth, but if you put any water-based material over flat cardboard, the cardboard tends to warp. Look on RUclips for someone who makes fairy houses with paper mache so you can see how they do it. I've never tried it myself.

      Your local community center might have classes. You could call them and ask. My book Make Animal Sculptures is kind of like a class, because it starts with really easy project and builds up your skills, so you can sculpt any animal when you're done. Maybe you could find some local artists who would like to do the projects together - a do-it-yourself workshop. That would be fun! You can see the book here amzn.to/1nMUO3a

    • @UltimatePaperMache
      @UltimatePaperMache  3 года назад +1

      You would need to make it with a waterproof material instead of paper mache clay. It might be possible to coat paper mache clay with an epoxy resin, but it makes more sense to start with something that's waterproof, instead. That way, you wouldn't have to buy an expensive product to coat the paper mache, and then hope it doesn't crack and let water in. Epoxy clay, like Apoxie Sculpt, is waterproof.
