Printable PDF Template for a Grinning Paper Mache Chimpanzee Mask
$12
Make this silly chimpanzee mask with some cereal box cardboard and paper mache – and then watch people grin when they see you wearing it. 🙂
This chimp mask pattern is easy to use, because it creates all the shapes for you. It’s designed to be oversized, with an inner strap that adjusts the fit. For a much smaller head, you can print the pattern at a smaller size.
My patterns are all intended for adults to make, so younger kids will need help putting it together.

I want to make a wall mount of a monkey head for my upcoming grandson’s nursery. Would it be difficult to make this mask into a wall mount?
Hi Pam. That shouldn’t be difficult. I think you’ll want to put all of the pieces together first, and then draw a line all around the top of the cap portion of the mask, far enough behind the ears so they won’t run into the wall. Then you can cut along that line, and put it on a piece of heavy corrugated cardboard. Draw around the shape that was made when you cut the back of the cap off, and cut around it on the heavy cardboard. Tape it to the back of the head, and then cover the edge with paper mache. Don’t put paper mache on the middle portion of the back, because flat cardboard tends to warp when the paper mache dries. I just drill a hole near the top of the flat back, and hang my masks on a nail. Have fun! 🙂
