25th March - Project Spellbook!



Hey there!! Today we went grocery shopping which was pretty boring, ( And also gut wrenching to see all those choccy eggs reduced by 75%"!! gggrrrrrr) but when we arrived home we set off on "Project Spellbook" We plan to make a spell book with a papier mache 3d cover ( "SPELL BOOK" written in 3D ) We made a start on the cover by cutting stiff cardboard and layering loo roll, with the PVA glue mixture, this then needs to set overnight until hard before stage 2, the 3D lettering, then when that dries overnight, stage 3, painting.

The picture shows the book after the first night of drying! I'll update further as we progress, we are going to make the "Ancient" paper again ( See Treasure maps!!) to write spells on and put inside the book with ties.

Wish us luck!!!
