[quote=Anonymous]I've made two pinatas, no paper maché necessary. Just cut two of the shape you want out of cardboard and then use a strip about 6" wide to attach them. Remember to leave a flap so you can fill it with candy and install a loop for hanging. I recommend a zip tie. For decorating I recommend the ruffled crepe paper method. Apply Elmer's glue in a thin line along the long edge of crepe paper, then attach it to the cardboard while scrunching the wet edge. Way easier than fussing with tissue paper and cutting fringe. This might be a good project for a neighborhood student, we've had tons of posts on the local listserv from folks looking for odd jobs. Good luck![/quote]
