I don't own many books on papier-mache and I was thinking about maybe getting a few more in the future for inspiration. So I'd love to hear what is your favorite book on papier-mache is, other than Jackie's of course!
Mine is a tiny little book called 'The Usborne Book of Papier-Mache'.

Juliet Bawden: The Art and Craft of Papier Mache, published by Mitchell Beazley. It got me back into PM as an art form; that and my son's copy of the Art Attack book. this is a how to book from a British children's TV program and is full of fabulous ideas.

My favorite is an oldy but goody, the first book that introduced me to papier mache as an art form rather than a school project. Design in Papier Mache by Carla and John B. Kenny. Its a Chilton book published in 1971, but they have chapters devoted to playing with form and shape as well as how-tos. They even have a chapter devoted to furniture making and refinishing! The projects have a definate "groovy kind of 70s" look, but the instructions are detailed and lots of pictures. You can find it used on Ebay and Amazon for relatively cheap. I have several PM books but this one is still my favorite, or maybe I'm just sentimental LOL

I do papier mache whenever I have time. It's my way to release stress. I found these books helpful:
1. Papier-Mache Treasures with Teena Flanner: Creating Your Own Vintage-Style Collectibles
2. Dollmaking With Papier Mache and Paper Clay
Hope these books will help you too. Goodluck!
