Wow Was this cool! Studio Art Club created paper mache piggy banks! We used a balloon to get the shape and then taped on egg creates, bottle caps, and paper to create the animal shape. Then, we wrapped those funky little things with paper mache strips- that's the fun, messy part! Over the next week the paper mache dries and the balloon pops making the inside hollow and the perfect place to put money! Students then painted their new creatures, glued on details, and then we cut the slit in the top and a hole in the bottom and there you have it- Piggy Banks!
