Plasterzote Workshop

Plasterzote is a fome material. This is such a good material to make head dresses with and masks. The children can get involved with it and use it in the classrooms which is so good. We had some demonstration with it was was told how to make head dresses. The plasterzote I was using would probably be a bit to thick for the children to use them selfs as you would have to use knifes to cut it. I would have to contact the schools and see if it would be allowed. But we also used centre cain and wire together and this made some interesting shapes on my head dress. This is a really good combination of materials to use and you can get a solid shape but it can be bent and wont really snap, it just doen't look that grate and would have to be covered if I was going to use.


This is my head dress I made and by sticking on beads and flan circles really adds texture and something the children can really go crazy with.
