Although the name sounds French, the art of paper mache was originally invented in China — the origin of paper itself. Over 2,200 years old, paper mache has become a craft essential for home décor and gift boxing, with paper mache shapes and paper mache boxes available in countless forms and sizes.
Pat Catan’s has a tremendous supply of paper mache boxes and paper mache shapes ready for your creative gift ideas. We’ve got paper mache boxes formed in hearts, ovals, circles and squares—as large as 14 inches square and as small as 3 inches round. |

Our paper mache boxes come as single pieces or in complete sets fit one within the other—up to 7 boxes in a set. Paper mache boxes also come in holiday shapes such as stars, treasure chests, gingerbread men, Christmas trees and snowmen, as well as in cylinders and octagons. Pat Catan's carries a truly outstanding collection of all these paper mache boxes, under one roof.
We also feature paper mache shapes in useful forms such as picture frames, baskets, flower pots, eggs, birdhouses, even mannequins. Paper mache shapes are light and affordable and easy to work with, and can take on the flavor and personality of the crafter working with this fascinating medium via paints, special glues, beads, glitter and floral accessories. Paper mache shapes make great craft items for children as well—a pre-formed craft that can be decorated by your little ones with minimal effort and maximum usability afterwards—as tree ornaments, desk décor, wall art and much more. Pre-formed paper mache shapes remove the messiness, but not the decorative fun, from this time-honored craft tradition.
