Paper mache bowls...

Today's craft activity was paper mache bowls.  I remember doing paper mache while in grade school, but since that was a while ago, I used the recipe for paste and instructions from Amanda Blake Soule's book Handmade Home.  Have I mentioned I LOVE HER?!

The boys really enjoyed it, although it took a few minutes for Justin to want to get his hands in the paste.  After some convincing on my part that the paste was not overly goopy and would come off with some plain warm water, he got more into it.  It was great fun!  I offered my "help" a few times because I wanted to get my hands in it too!

Pictures of the finished product to come soon!
