How to use

Prepare a clean workspace and protect surfaces. Mix the plaster powder with water according to the instructions provided in the kit until you obtain a smooth, pourable consistency. Pour the plaster carefully into the latex mould and tap gently to release air bubbles. Insert the plastic holders if required for support and allow the plaster to set fully until hard. Once dry, demould the owl and use the included paint colours and brush to decorate the figure. Apply glitter as a finishing detail. Allow paint and glitter to dry completely before handling or displaying the model.

Usage recommendations

Adult supervision is recommended for mixing plaster and for children under 8. Work on a protected surface and wear suitable clothing. Follow the kit instructions for plaster-to-water ratios and drying times. Keep materials away from small children when not in use and avoid ingestion of plaster, paint or glitter.
