Alpana using decorative pieces
August 11, 2009 2 Comments
When not having enough time to make a traditional alpana, we can make these pieces when we have time and use them in whichever shape we want. These pieces make our decorations very easy, but very attractive.

I tried my hand at using glass painting technique on OHP plastic sheets instead of glass, and was quite happy with the outcome.Plastics sheets can be shaped to whatever shapes we want and hence working with it was very easy.
