Paper mache is simple enough for children but versatile enough for the most sophisticated designer. You need only a stack of paper, wallpaper paste, ordinary household tools, and this complete how-to guide. Internationally known designer Helga Meyer shows how to make and decorate paper mache items such as bowls, lamps, frames, goblets, sconces, masks, animal figures, and more.

Meyer's manual includes an interesting variety of techniques (positive clay forms and negative plaster molds, and mixed-media methods for decorating surfaces), which adds a distinctive element to the overall content of this guide to working with papier-mache. Among the numerous projects represented are very contemporary forms, as well as objects inspired by folk art and works by indigenous peoples. A sculptural stack of containers provides a fitting contrast to a primitive-style varnished bowl. Different base forms support round-bottomed vessels, and animal figures should delight children. Filled with ideas, inspiration, and practical advice, Meyer offers challenging projects, as well as basic how-to information for beginners. Alice Joyce
