Step 4

Time to add the plaster! We’ll be using paperclay for this house, but spackling compound can be used.

We’ll be working in sections of the walls so don’t worry about doing it all at once, but we will be working at a fairly rapid pace. Before you begin, put a small bowl of water close at hand so you can dip your fingers into it as you smooth the clay.

Pinch off a lump of paperclay about the size of a large marble. Pressing it between your fingers and thumb, flatten the piece out to about the thickness of pie crust.

Smear a section of the wall with carpenters glue, being sure to get an even coverage.
