[Cynnabar] March premeeting workshops - special request

[Greg Less via Barony]

Hi All -

   I will look for my class notes on mumming and mummers masks for earlier

   The best bet for making them is pepier-mache over a wire armature or
other base.  You can buy everything you need at Michael's.

   Here is an Instructables tutorial:
