I love to reuse and repurpose. Here is an idea how to make clay from egg carton.

Supplies

Egg carton, home made glue

Step 1:

Tear the egg carton to pieces and soak it in the water for 8 - 12 hours. Take the pieces from the water and squeeze them so most of the water goes out.

Step 2:

Blend the pieces in to mass. Prepare glue. You will need 4 tbs of rice or wheat flour. Mix it in 200 ml of cold water, add 200 ml of hot water and cook for 2-3 min on medium heat. Mix during cooking. Put in a glass dish, let it cool down.

Step 3:

Mix glue with the paper mass.

Step 4:

Mix it well with hands and you are ready to create! I continue to do a little figurine, but you can use this clay for any project including papier mache.
