  • How to make paper pulp:
  1. Remove the water content from the paper pulp. Spread the paper pulp to attain uniformity.
  2. Take 250 gms of Gum Arabic in steel utensil. Add 1.25 liters of water.
  3. Then keep the utensil on medium heat, boil it for 10-15 minutes. Keep stirring with the help of wooden stick throughout.
  4. Filter the Gum Arabic after it cools down. Take 500gms of the paper pulp. Pour in the filtered gum arabic. Merged it is properly.
  5. Then add 2.25 kg of white ink powder. Make this mixture soft and firm as textured dough. Clean the mould with water and dry it.
  6. For fiber mold, apply Oil and Soap mixture from within. If it is a rubber mould apply Natural Shell Dust.
  7. Take the paper maché and roll it in a circular form with 1 feet radius. Use Natural Shell Dust while rolling. Keep the rolled paper maché on the mould and start pressing it, with help of stencil brush. Remove the excess paper maché.
  8. Press the paper maché with your hands, so that the impressions of the mould would get embossed properly. In case you see any gaps, fill up the same with small piece of paper maché.
  9. Merge it properly from all sides, so that it doesnt look like a patch. In this manner, you can fill up the front side and back side of the idol.
  10. Stick the paper pieces with the help of binding gum, leaving 1-inch distance from the border. While sticking see to it that there are no air bubbles in between.
  11. Apply 2 to 3 layers of paper pieces. Seal the border with long dough strands. Join the mould and tighten it. Seal the inner joints and the base with this long dough strands.
