Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1

Enhance the fans by painting the edges with dry strokes of Acrylic Colours Light Green 12 and Teal Blue 68. Let them dry.
Stick the fans aesthetically onto the arch using Fevicol MR. Let it dry.

Use thick card paper to make a feather fan using the fan fold technique.
Paint the fan and the peacock with Acrylic Colours Light Green 12, Ultramarine Blue 23, Cerulean Blue 32, Teal Blue 68, and Pearl Metallic Gold 352. Let it dry.
Attach the feather fan neatly to the peacock using Fabric Glue. Let it dry.
Enhance the peacock's eyes with a white ornamental stone.

Step 3

We are going to make the backdrop for the Ganapati festival using corrugated sheets, card paper, and Mouldit.
Take a corrugated sheet and mark and cut it into an arch shape to create the backdrop.

Step 4

Take the thick card paper, and mark and cut squares measuring 6” x 6”.
Paint the squares using Ultramarine Blue 23. Let them dry.
Create fan folds with the squares and secure the center with Fevicol MR. Let them dry.

Step 5

Take the corrugated sheet, mark and cut out a peacock shape with its wings.
Mix Mouldit resin base and hardener to make an even dough.
Roll the dough into a slab and cover the peacock shape using clay modelling tools and Fabric Glue. Let it dry.

Your backdrop for the Ganapati festival will look like this.
