Draw the Spiral

Draw a large spiral pattern on the black chart paper using a pencil. Make the spiral wide enough to create a galaxy-like design.

Paint the Galaxy

Paint the spiral using Rangeela Tempera Metallic Colours. Blend different shades to create a glowing galaxy effect and allow the paint to dry completely.

Add the Space Details

Paint tiny white dots around the spiral to create stars. Let the artwork dry before decorating.

Decorate the Galaxy

Stick the multicolour decorative stones and sequins around the spiral using Fevicol Glue Drops. Arrange them to resemble colourful planets and stars.

Prepare the Planet Lights

Stick the plastic caps onto the artwork using Fevicol Glue Drops. Position them where the glowing planets will appear.

Assemble the Night Light

Stick the completed artwork onto the corrugated sheet using Fevicol Glue Drops. Place the LED tea lights inside the plastic caps.

Light Up Your Galaxy

Switch on the LED lights to illuminate the planets and display your beautiful Planet Night Light.
