Papier mache craft: Baby Lunch box


For this square box, I gave it the theme of children, food and toys. One side panel is completely covered with a magazine picture: a clothes shoot done in a circus. I loved the big "favourite" sign above the model's head. (This image came out a little buckled in the end: it's got to do with the size of the image and the paper wanting to curl up from the moisture, but the glaze wanting it to stretch out. It's not so bad from most angles.)

I had a series of numbered pictures of kids' bowls and cutlery, filled with lollies, and some images of funky toys.

Baby Lunchbox: the background colours are pink, mint green, white and blue stripe / polka dot. Inside is a pale glossy yellow, with a bonus image on the inside of the lid.
