Making Trouser Bowls

We made trouser bowls for Ballater Christmas  Fair.They were made out of paper mache .Paper mache is newspaper and PVA glue.We, p6/7, made these trouser bowls, they took us 10  hours of our life to make.We used newspaper , PVA glue , balloons ,paint brushes , metallic pens , acrylic paint , plant pots , polystyrene cups,scissors and sellotape. We made 48 of them.they were made by us putting newspaper on an a balloon with glue on it and letting it dry for 36 hours and once it had dried we moulded the polystyrene cups and stuck them on the bowl.Then we did what we did to the bowl and let it dry.After we let it dry, we painted it with the acrylic paint and let that dry too. When it dried we titivated it with the metallic pens and then put a layer of PVA glue on it to shine it up. We were proud of our products. By Ryszard and Kieran.
