And during most times in lockdown, i have been doing some painting to de-stress myself!

This is possibly something that could be made by anyone, on their own!

For additional support to the base cardboard, i have used a strip cut from an unused plastic hanger.

1. I cut the bottom part of an old cloth hanger.

2. Unsmoothened the strip at edges, so as to glue it with the base cardboard.

Colour Palette : Hollow Cardboard Cylinder, to Hold the Base Cardboard in Hands!

In order to hold the base cardboard in hands, i have used a thin hollow cylinder cardboard structure wrapped with black colour tapes so that it is alike with the base cardboard. Glued it with the base.

Adjusted the hollow cylinder, to a dome like structure to make it fix with the flat base.

This is used to hold the Colour palette with hands.

And Finally!
