IS there any certain way to wrap a mummy...

All is done

Very carefully!LOL!Seriously,is it a FULL size prop,3/4,1/2 or just a head?For Full size(with feet together)I would start with the toes,put a layer of gauze wrap or whatever material you choose over the toes first then around the tops and bottoms of the feet then work your way up the body.When you run out of one and start a fresh roll make sure you tuck or staple the new peice as close to the lst piece you just laid.When you get to the arms I would go up the chest Then back down the arms(make sure arms are crossed).Once you get the arms completed you can go over Both arms with a OVER and Under wrap to make sure the arms are flush with the body.When you get to the head instead of going around the head go from chin to top of forehead and vice versa then do your around the face wrap.For "realism" lightly spraypaint the whole prop with grey,light brown spraypaint and if you REALLY want to get down and dirty with it add liquid latex to the whole thing and sprinkle a little dirt(sand or light potting soil)on the latex before it dries an donce it dries then spray paint it.
hope this helps.
