by - November 05, 2013

Welcome back to my world of crafting !! Today i am going to show you how to make a different pen stand as well as craft piece. Lets get started with this interesting craft.




MATERIALS NEEDED :

  1. Rectangular cardboard box
  2. air dry clay ( like shilpkar )
  3. acrylic paint
  4. glue 
  5. varnish 
PROCEDURE : 

Step 1 : Cut the top portion of the cardboard to get the shape of the thulasi maadam. ( as shown in below figure)





Step 2 : Cut a small regtangular piece of cardboard and attach it to the bottom of the box.
Step 3 : Cover the  entire cardboard surface with clay.  Roll cylindrical pieces of clay and attach it to the top and bottom portion like a beading to the thulasi maadam. 


Step 4 : Allow it to dry completely and then paint using wood brown or maroon acrylic colour. After the paint dries apply a coat of varnish to get the wooden finish. 



This thulasi maadam stand can be used as a pencil holder , show piece as well as flower vase. So a simple , ethnic and different pen holder is ready to decorate your desk.

Have a nice day!!!

Happy crafting!!!
