I like the free flow of the paper mache and the paint. It seems like a very relax piece to have fun with and put trash to a much better use than landfills.

Aww! It looks adorable. I loved seeing the final product. I think it seems like a fun project, and I enjoyed getting to see the process and work that went into making the mask. Thanks for sharing!
