HOW IT IS DONE:

Depending on the desired size, either a balloon or a smaller water bomb can be used as a base. After inflating, place individual sheets of toilet paper on the balloon one after the other and spray them with water. Then carefully press the paper down with your fingers so that it fits smoothly onto the balloon. The individual sheets should overlap. In this way, several layers of toilet paper are applied one after the other – in the example, there are approx. 20 layers. Important: Do not rub or pull when applying – the wet paper tears very easily. Then allow the paper to dry completely.

Once the paper is completely dry, the balloon inside can be removed. To do this, carefully let the air out using scissors.

Finally, DO IT Craft Paint can be used to add accents such as a dot pattern.

TIPS & TRICKS
  • The more layers of toilet paper you apply, the sturdier the final shell will be. To achieve an even surface, allow each layer to dry briefly before adding more.
