Procure the base

First, gather your base materials: a corrugated sheet, a white A4 sheet, and a toothpick.

Draw the circle

On the white paper, use a pencil to draw two identical circular shapes for the globe.

Draw and Cut the Stand

Use the pencil and ruler to draw the base and stand design for your globe on the corrugated sheet.

Cut the parts

Carefully use your scissors to cut the corrugated sheet into the shape of the stand, separating the pieces as you go.

Paint the parts

Pick Rangeela Tempera Pastel Colours to paint the globe circles and the corrugated stand parts. Paint the globe and outline the stand's edges with black colour.

Assemble the Globe

Take the toothpick and insert it into the top of the corrugated stand.

Stick the globe

Take both of your painted globe cutouts and stick them, one on each side, onto the toothpick using Fevicol MR, making sure they line up perfectly.

Final Touches

Place the stand on the table. For a fun, quirky look, stick googly eyes onto the globe's face using Fevicol MR. Allow the adhesive to set, and your cute globe standee is ready!
