Make a Papier Mache Bowl You may not have clay or a kiln in which to bake finished pieces, but we can make something that looks like pottery using the papier mache technique, a craft in which layers of paper are pasted together to make a form. In this activity, we'll create a bowl and invent our own pictographs to use as surface decoration. By recycling newspapers and bags as art materials, we can help save natural resources and landfill space.
