how to make wall hangings:
Its really simple as i told even kids can make it.Basically the wall hanging is made by coiling newspaper strips into various shaped coaster and hanging them together.First lets see how to make the newspaper strips
- Cut the newspaper horizontally into 4 pieces so that you can make 4 strips with one page.
- Keep folding the paper until you get thick strips of size approximately 1cm
- Make many strips and keep it aside.
- Now start making coasters of different shape by coiling and gluing the strips.
- I made One triangle one square and two circles one big and one small one.
- Making circle is easier, but other shapes you have to make carefully, from the beginning you should try to maintain the shape.
- Once all the shapes are made by continuously rolling and gluing the strips its time to paint them all
- I chose the primary colours Red yellow blue and green
- After painting let them dry for atleast an hour
- Connect them all using the woolen thread or any thick thread you have
- Everything is ready hang it of !
- Colourful-Recycled-Wall -Hanging ready 🙂
