Abstract: The invention is a composition of an architectural papier-mâché, and articles made therewith. Articles formed from using the architectural papier-mâché have excellent weather resistance, and can be used outdoors, as well as indoors. The composition is comprised of cellulose insulation and a joint compound. Cellulose insulation is a paper-based material, like newsprint or phonebook paper that is shredded and chemically treated with boric acid, which imparts resistance to mold, mildew, fungus, insects, moisture and flammable combustion.
