Make the Kite Frame

Fold a sheet of white chart paper in half. Draw a kite shape with a circle in the centre and cut it out using scissors.

Paint the Frame

Paint the front of the kite using Rangeela Tempera Colours. Let the paint dry completely.

Make the Kite Tail

Cut a triangle from coloured chart paper. Stick thin coloured paper strips on it using Fevicol Glue Drops, then stick the tail to the bottom of the kite.

Decorate the Kite

Stick more coloured paper strips above the tail using Fevicol Glue Drops to create the kite design.

Add the Face

Stick the paper eyes above the circular opening using Fevicol Glue Drops. Paint the eyebrows with black paint.

Insert the Photo

Open the frame and place your favourite photo behind the circular opening. Close the frame carefully. Your colourful Makar Sankranti Kite Photo Frame is now ready to display.
