Prepare Base

Take one whole paper plate and keep it aside. This will serve as the background base for the Ganesha figure.

Draw Parts

Take the other two paper plates. Draw the head with the trunk and crown on one plate, and parts like the stomach, ears, and legs/arms on the other to maximize space.

Cut the design

Carefully use scissors to cut along the outlines of all the drawn body parts.

Paint the Cutouts

Use Fevicryl Acrylic Carnival Pack to paint the cutout parts. Decorate the crown section with yellow and pink. Let the paint dry completely.

Decorate the Details

Arrange the painted parts onto the paper plate. Finally, stick to the googly eyes and add finishing touches with golden lace to decorate the figure with Fevicol MR.

Final Look

Your Ganesha Idol is ready!
