Plast’r Craft® Creatures Project

Creatures Project

Difficulty: Easy

These aren’t your typical paper mache creatures. Plast’r Craft® is a sturdy plaster impregnated gauze suitable for all ages.

Products Used:

Other Tools and Materials Needed:

  • Newspaper
  • White School Glue

Project Steps:

  1. Step 1:

    Shape it: Start by scrunching up paper and wrapping pipe cleaners around it. Bend the pipe cleaners in the shape of your creature. Remember: You can add more detail to it later. Just give it the basics like a head, body, arms, legs and a tail.

  2. Step 2:

    Plast’r Craft® It: Follow the directions on the side of the Plast’r Craft® Box and cover your entire creature. You can continue to shape and bend him as you add the Plast’r Craft®. Give him monster-like details such as horns, spikes and claws to make him more original. Let it dry overnight.

  3. Step 3:

    Color It: Use white glue and scraps of tissue paper to give it color. The cleanest way to do this is to use a paintbrush to apply the glue and tissue to your creature.
