Create beautiful decorations using plaster gauze rolls
The possibilities wen using plaster gauze are countless– only your creativity can set the limits. It doesn't take many materials to create a unique product that can decorate your home or be given away as a gift. Of course, you can always look through our extensive catalogue of ideas for some great suggestions on how to use plaster gauze. However, we would like to highlight some great ideas below. Read on and get inspired.

  • Create some candlesticks. Make your own beautiful candlesticks– exclusively made from plaster gauze and glass. Feel free to use some old jam jars that are just standing around the house collecting ornaments. Decorate these glass jars with plaster gauze, ideally use only one layer or two, so that the tealight can still shine through beautifully. This is the perfect way to add a little cosiness to your home – and is suitable for both winter and summer. They can be used both outdoors and indoors. A good tip is also to use them as party and table decorations.

  • Make unique small bowls. There is plenty of opportunity to create small, pretty bowls using plaster gauze rolls. Stick plaster gauze on the bottom of an inflated balloon, and preferably add several layers of plaster gauze so that the bowl becomes relatively robust and more durable. Inflate the balloon to the size that you want on your bowl to be – e.g. make them in both large and small sizes and match them in the same colour afterwards. Use the bowls for jewellery storage, or create small ornaments to put in them, e.g. using potpourri and the like. Doesn't that sound like a nice and cosy project?

So there are many opportunities to create something incredibly beautiful out of plaster gauze rolls, and it won't cost much money.

Make face masks with the kids
This is a creative project that has been on done for many years at various day care institutions, after-school centres, and schools. And for good reason. Making face masks with the children using plaster gauze is both an entertaining and creative project, and it is relatively easy to do.

Click here and follow our guide on how you and your children can create face masks. The children will find it an incredibly entertaining project – and will find it fun to apply gauze to their face.
If face masks are to be made directly on the skin, it is always a good idea to apply a thick layer of petroleum jelly (or a rich cream) to help prevent the skin from becoming irritated and red afterwards.

Once the gauze has dried, it is of course time to decorate the mask, which you can in all good conscience use hours to do. The masks can either be decorated in a lifelike manner, e.g. with glasses, freckles, moles, etc. Or you can also go full throttle with colours and patterns and unleash your creativity. Remember that you can find all the accessories for decorating the face masks here on our webshop, e.g. glitter, markers and paint. The masks can either be used for play or decoration in the child’s room. They can also be used for various dress up parties, Halloween and Shrovetide.

The creative project of making face masks is a cosy game that can be arranged for children’s birthdays, or as entertainment during your children’s holidays, when they need to be a little extra spoiled.

The children will probably soon be crying out for even more creative projects using plaster gauze. Fortunately, there is a quick solution to this – such as balloons and plaster gauze, from which you can make all sorts of fun and crazy things.
