1. To make a paper mache mask, get a container or bowl and use a whisk to mix 1 cup of warm water and

1 cup of flour together.

2. Get A3 newspaper and cut it into 10 sheets.

3. If you are using a friend of yours for this project, apply petroleum jelly on their face.

4. Remember the 10 sheets of A3 newspaper you cut in step 2? Dip every single one of them in the mixture you prepared in step 1.

5. Proceed by placing the sheets on your friend's place, but start with his forehead and nose.

6. Then proceed to his chin and cheeks.

7. Check if there are areas that are yet to be covered, then fill them with paper mâché. It is important to note the papier mâché will not be covering your friend's eyes and mouth.

8. Leave the mask on your friend's face for about three hours for it to dry.

9. Remove the mask from his face.

10. Put the mask very close to any source of air to allow it to dry.

11. Add more papier mâché to the mask and paint it with acrylic paint, then add materials such as feather, wool, etc.
