Plaster Ghost

In this activity video we will create a spooky plaster ghost sculpture for Halloween using plaster bandages

Step 1

Tape a poly ball onto the bottom of a paper cup and push skewers into the base of the ball to provide a support for the arms.

Step 2

Use your support as a guide to measure out two pieces of Art Roc. Working one piece at a time, dip one of your bandage pieces into a bowl of water and then gently place it over one side of the support.

Step 3

Do the same to the second piece of bandage making sure that the pieces overlap down the centre. Use your fingers to press the join together.

Step 4

Pinch the bandage together under the arms and along the sides. Scrunch the bottom edge to give the ghost a sturdy base. Now leave the plaster to dry for 1hr.

Step 5

When your plaster is dry you can remove the support.

Step 6

Now you can decorate your ghost by adding eyes and perhaps painting it a fun colour. A battery operated tea light can be placed under your ghost if you want it to glow.
