  • Step 1

    first make that glue: my mixture is flour, water, tablespoon of wood glue and a teaspoon of Elmer's glue the mixture should be not to thick or to thin but somewhere in-between . this mixture I used is good for paper mache if u can afford if u don't want to buy wallpaper glue

  • Step 2

    next cut the cardboard into squares or any shape u like. I used 8 square

  • Step 3

    next tear strips of paper( don't cut the strips because the edges will not be flat on the surface)

  • Step 4

    dip the paper strips in the glue solutions, make sure get the excess glue off.

  • Step 5

    now put about 3 to 4 layers of glue paper on each piece squared cardboard. then let them dry.

  • Step 6

    once all the pieces are dry take a fine texture sand paper and sand each piece until smooth (make sure u don't over sand the pieces)

  • Step 7

    now that all the pieces are smooth punch holes in the corners of the squares

  • Step 8

    it now time to put ur painting skills in effect. design the pieces however u want and let the pieces dry.
