Paper Wigs

A little behind the scenes action featuring curatorial assistants, Carolanne Tkach and Vinnie Tharnish, working their magic to make the paper wigs for our Culture/Counterculture exhibit.
Shout out to Carolanne for showing Vinnie the ropes!

Would you mind sharing a link to the twisted paper cord you are using? I'm only finding 2mm thick cord which seems much, much smaller than yours...

[@myland777]

good job! Thank you for the video. please tell me what is the name of the base material that you process with the device. And what is this device?

Was there ever an answer posted?

The base caps are made out of fosshape which is an industrial felt which will harden into shape when steamed. Then the paper twist is glued to it with a hot glue gun.
