The key materials are brown paper, an armature, and a quick drying glue.
The paper I prefer is a long-fiber wood-pulp type that is fairly thick and has good tensile strength. This kind of paper is often used for market bags or wrapping parcels for mailing.
For this demonstration project, I use an empty hen's eggshell for the armature.
My favorite glue is "Modge Podge", a water-based, acrylic glue used for decoupage. This glue dries in minutes, and remains clear and slightly flexible when dry. I believe an acrylic matte medium could be used in place of Modge Podge glue.
