India celebrates its 76th Republic Day this year. Patriotic tunes will be in the air and our tricolour will flutter not just from the masts, but even on vehicles as they pass by. There’s no doubt that symbols of our country will be everywhere. Here are 3 great DIY Republic Day craft ideas to decorate your room or school with the patriotic spirit.
Lotus Tea-light Holder
As our national flower, this lotus-styled DIY candle holder is definitely a wonderful addition to your home. All you need are disposable plastic spoons, Camlin White Glue, an empty, disposable fruit cup, Camel Acrylic Colours and tea light candles.
Break off the spoon handles and start gluing the spoons (face-up) to the empty fruit cup from the top and around the cup. Layer it up to completely cover the cup. Allow the glue to dry, then use the acrylic colours to paint the outsides of the spoons. When the paint has dried, place the tea light inside the container and your lotus tealight holder is ready to light up the day!
Paper Roll Tiger
You will need a toilet paper roll, orange-coloured paper, Camlin White Glue, Fine Tip Permanent Marker in Black Colour, scissors and Camel Water Colours.
Carefully measure and glue the orange-coloured paper around the roll. With black paint, create the tiger’s stripes on the now orange roll. Draw two paws and a face for the tiger on the remaining orange paper and cut them out. Using the marker, colour the paws (you can use a paw stamp if you have one) and draw stripes, eyes, a nose and mouth for the face. With the paws facing outwards, stick them onto the lower part of the roll and the face at the top. Fashion a tail from a thick orange thread or cut it out of the paper, paint it, and stick it on the back, and your paper roll tiger is ready to roar!
Plastic Spoon Peacock
You will once again need plastic spoons, Camel Acrylic Colours, cardboard, gold glitter paper, Camel Fabric Glue and cotton buds.
First, paint the spoons in designs of blue, yellow and green to resemble a peacock’s feathers. Then draw and cut out a circle (as the base) and the neck, face and beak from the cardboard. Glue the glitter paper on one side of the circle. When the spoons are dry, arrange and glue them on the base. Next colour the tips of the cotton buds in blue paint and glue these (facing downwards) along the neck. Next, paint the face blue and use black and yellow to paint the eye and beak. Your decorative peacock can now strut its stuff!
