Papier mache furniture

I'm finally speeding up when it comes to making papier mache furniture. I wanted to make samples so I could work on trying to sell some. I thought I'd put up some pictures of furniture being made so to 
speak. Maybe one day I'll stick up how to guides but there seems to be quite a few out there already!

The picture to the right is a children's chair that started off life as an extra shelf on the shoe rack. It took around six years to finish and I'll add finished pictures of it later! 
 
I wanted to make something for my little one who revels in the attention and, in theory, would then not be so bothered when the other furniture came and went.

The picture below is a large 
computer chair. It turned out to be pretty comfortable with cushions on.The plan was to try to sell some of the things I've made on ebay and etsy but as it's taken months of work, several broken blenders and multiple liters of PVA I'm not sure if they'll sell at the price I'll be charging! It's not worth me selling for less. They were originally made for me. So now I guess they might be with me for life! I should really try listing them anyway for the sake of Paper Reloved.
