A very simple paper mache paste. It is non-toxic and there are only 2 ingredients. There is also a version following this one that is a little more detailed.
Place 2 or 3 Tablespoons plain flour in a bowl. Add a little bit of water. Stir to make a smooth paste. Gradually add more water until the paste is the consistency of thick cream. Apply paste with a brush or your fingers.
For 1 to 1 1/2 cups paper mache paste, mix together one cup of flour with 1 cup water. Keep adding water (about 3 cups) and mix until all the lumps are gone. Bring to a boil in a saucepan and cool completely.
Adding Elmer glue to a any recipe will give it more strength.
