The Papier Maché Project


We've all been working for months on a Papier Maché technique with Lydia and have been have a whole lot of fun.
I must admit for me it has been a real struggle waiting so long to get her finished. This technique is not for the impatient get-to-the-end doll maker like me but I must admit that I've learned alot, and it's been a wonderful project.
Thanks Lydia for sharing!!

Here's my dolls' progress!
