Oklahoma Props - Hay bales and straw babies
Mon, 7 Feb 2011, 09:45 pmWe are doing a production of Oklahoma! and I need to make or buy very cheaply a couple of straw dolls - any ideas??
Also, with some cast member allergic to hay and straw, I'm looking for ideas on how to create fake hay bales.
Any advice would be much appreciated - Thanks in advance
You could use Raffia
Fri, 4 Mar 2011, 09:44 pmYou could use RAFFIA covering on a cardboard or wooden box. Then using white wood gue in a watered down milky solution &/or mix with paint to cover the raffia, which dries clear & will affix the raffia to hold it in place.
Flame retardent can also be mixed in as it works well with raffia & cardboard.
This might give you an idea or even buy some;- http://www.dallaswesternparties.com/hay_bales.htm
