Coil the jute ropes and roll up the jute material. If you are new to jute, you should experiment with shaping the material. You can figure out how best to use it for your sculpture. Jute come in rolls of fabric, in yarn-like braids, as rope, in bags and as sheets of paper. Depending on the type of jute you use, you can make whatever your imagination comes up with.
Sketch a preliminary drawing for your sculpture with a pencil in your sketchbook. Jute is versatile and use your drawing as a blueprint for your final sculpture. With the plans, consider how you will secure the jute together and if it needs an internal support.
Create a small model for your sculpture out of the jute. A model will help you visualize your two-dimensional drawing. You can work out any building problems or challenges that may come up when it is a smaller model before working on a larger scale. Cut it using a utility knife. Also, a model will help you see if it works as a sculpture or not.
Sculpt specific areas of your jute sculpture. At this point you have decided on methods of using the material. It can be knotting jute rope or using it like paper over a structure. Remember that sometimes mistakes turn out to be the best ideas. Use your intuition, your small model, and your sketch as guides for the final art piece.
Piece together the final sculpture. Secure it together with bonding materials such as glue. Or you may just knot the jute together. Walk around the entire sculpture to be sure it is working from all sides. Add more material if necessary, or remove areas that you do not like. Continue to work on your sculpture until you are satisfied.
