Step - 1

Procure the base - Let us make cute finger puppets of the mythological characters for Dussehra. First, take a plain white sheet for the base.

Step - 2

Draw the faces - Draw 4 to 5 circular shapes to make the head of the characters. Draw the details using pencil, make one moustache for Ravana’s character.

Step - 3

Paint the characters - Take Rangeela Tempera Pastel Colours and paint the characters and their outfits using different vibrant colours. Take the glittery foam sheet and cut the shape of two crowns. Take toothpicks to make the arrows while attaching the painted paper on the edges. Let it all dry.

Step - 4

Stick the sheet - Make sure you take another plain white sheet and stick its edges with the painted sheet, leaving the bottom edge open to insert the finger using Fevistik Power.

Step - 5

Stick the arrows - Pick the arrows and the moustache and stick them behind Lord Ram and the moustache on Ravana. Stick the cutout faces on the top using Fevistik Power. Stick the ornamental stones as jewelry and decorate the crowns as well. Let it dry.

Step - 6

Final Look - This is how you can make fun and engaging finger puppet craft for Dussehra.
