Old Rolling Board Into Art

Wife bought 2 awesome paper Mache tribal faces from some artisans market. She wanted something to decorate them. Also we had an old rolling board which got scratchy and the chapatis are not rolling good. So I tried to club these 2 things.

Googled for some image ideas. Got this image of "kash bon". This is mostly local to Bengal and surroundings. You can see these king of grass in Bengali movies. So started with this image and painted something around this concept. My image is not so good as the original image but the wife was happy with the result.

For mounting the faces on the rolling board I used mini thin pins. Not much weight was required so these did the job. Placed the faces and just by visible judgment marked the hanging pins.

Finally mounted the board and added the faces. Everything is modular just hanging with each other.

Tell me how this looks.
