Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1

We are going to make the canvas with lippan art design around the bal krishna using Mouldit, mirrors, colours and Fabric Glue.

Step 3

Take the dough, make small balls out of it, embed the round diamond and triangular shaped mirrors in the clay further to stick on the lippan art design.
Keep it aside for drying.

Similarly take some dough, roll it to make the slab, draw the outline drawing of Balkrishna on it and cut the outline properly of the design with a paper cutter.
Refer to the image.
