Dusty Dino works in the Garden






Making a Dolphin

For my school project, I decided to make a dolphin.  Daddy helped me make the wooden frame using his band saw.

Then I wrapped wire around the wooden frame to give it a bit of body.

The next step was to use masking tape to cover the wire at the tail fin and mouth.


Then I covered the whole dolphin with masking tape so that the paper mache would stick to the wire and wooden frame.



All nicely covered and ready for the forming with paper mache.

Toilet paper, flour and water for the final layer...

Now all I need to do is leave it to dry and then paint it....
