Once dried. Attach the shells together as shown in the image using Fevicol MR. Now reapply a layer of tissue paper using the mixture of Fevicol MR and water onto the whole structure to stay intact.

Using the Rangeela Tempera Colour of your choice, paint the structure with the help of fine art brushes and let it dry. To create patterns, take the Rangeela Creative clay of your choice, roll it into coils to form patterns onto the structure as shown, and stick it using Fevicol MR. As shown in the image, give details to the design made by sticking mirrors of different shapes using Glue drops.
