Paper Mache Workshop by Ashok Patnaik
Paper mache originates from China, the inventors of paper itself. In India, it was first adopted in Kashmir in the 15th century. There are two methods to prepare paper-mache. The first method makes use of paper strips glued together with adhesive, and the other uses paper pulp obtained by soaking or boiling paper to which glue is then added. Let's get a sneak-peak of the workshop where we learnt both the ways.
