What I Did: Nothing worked! My daughter was getting impatient with the messy, gluey, string-wrapping. I didn’t have anywhere to hang it to dry & figured because it was nice & warm out, that I should hang it outside (also cleaner for the glue drippings). But, it fell apart 🙁
My Result:
Next Time I Will:† I don’t think I’ll attempt this one again!
If you ever do attempt it again, soak the string in the thickening medium (papier mache paste? glue?). This is something every kid in America makes at some point at school. The key is , soak the string , use enough string and let it completely dry, over the course of several days.
