Prepare the Base Design

Take the two circular MDF boards that will serve as the base for your wall hangings.

Draw the design

On each board, use a pencil to lightly sketch your designs. Draw the outline of Lord Ganesha’s face on both the boards.

Create the Clay Coils

Take Fevicryl Mouldit resin and hardener and mix them. Roll the dough into long and thin coils. Stick them with Fevicol MR on the drawn outline. This will create the raised, 3D effect of Lippan art.

Paint the Base

Use Fevicryl Carnival Pack in the Ganesha figure and other elements. Pick fine paint brushes to add intricate details. Let it dry.

Add Mirrors and Hooks

Apply Fevicol MR in a decorative pattern around your design and press the mirrors firmly. Turn the boards over and use Fevicol MR to securely attach the hanging hooks to the top.

Add Finishing Touches

To complete the decorative look, apply Fevicol MR to the bottom edge of the MDF board. Firmly press the white stone ring with tassels. Allow the tassels to dry completely.

Final Look

Your beautiful Shubh Labh Ganesha wall hangings are now complete!
