Started by making the shapes out of cardboard.
Then I covered them in newspaper and a flour and water paste. Slowly adding flour to warm water (1/2 cup of flour to one cup of water). Then gradually adding boiled water to the mixture until it thickens to the consistency desired.
After the newspaper dried, I painted a layer of Gesso and allowed that to dry before I started painting the shapes with acrylic paint (use the paint you prefer).
After the paint dried, I began adding the crepe streamer. I cut the streamer to give the shape the desired look.
