Instructions:Add hot water to blender until it's about 1/3 full. Put 4 cups of shredded newspaper in blender. Blend together until newspaper is finely shredded.
Take shredded newspaper out of blender and, using your hands, squeeze excess water into blender and place newspaper into bowl. Repeat this process until all the newspaper is removed from the blender.
Add 2 teaspoons of table salt to newspaper in bowl.
Add approximately 1/8 cup of white craft glue to the mixture.
Using spoon or hands, mix newspaper, salt, and glue together.
Select mold, and spray with nonstick spray.
Using your hands, take your newly made papier-mache and press into mold, making sure you see no parts of the mold through the newspaper and that the top edges are even. Set aside molds, letting them dry in warm sun.
Be sure to keep checking on them as they dry.
Take dry molds and remove faux food ornaments.
Select an acrylic paint color. First, paint inside of the ornament.
Saturate with paint, flip over, and paint outside.
Let dry for about 10 minutes until it loses its shine.
To make the piping, measure 1/2 cup of spackle and mix with 1 teaspoon white acrylic paint, enough for about 4 tartlets.
Place in a piping bag and pipe onto tartlet.
Using tweezers, place decorative embellishments onto tartlet.
Let dry overnight.
