I have not done this myself but I have heard that it works well.

This would work well and It's easy to do. I have used a homemade paste made of flour and water and a roll of white tissue birthday party streamers from the dollar store. you can cut to any length you want and it's a bit easier to work with than TP. because it's has a bit more substance.
