Description :

Create a customized nameplate by bringing the elegance of Kalamkari art to a wooden base. Using vibrant Fevicryl Acrylic Colours, you'll paint intricate traditional designs around a central space left blank for a personalized name.

STEP 1 : Kalamkari Art Nameplate
  •  To design a nameplate with Kalamkari Design, take a rectangular wooden base.
STEP 2 : Paint the base
  • Apply a generous base coat of Fevicryl Acrylic Colour White from the Carnival Pack.
  • Allow this base coat to dry completely.

 

STEP 3 : Trace the Design
  • Once the white paint is dry, use a pencil and tracing paper to carefully trace the desired Kalamkari design onto the wooden base.
  • Ensure you leave a clear, un-traced space in the center where the name will be added later.
STEP 4 : Paint the Kalamkari Motifs
  • Using the various colours from the Fevicryl Acrylic Colours Carnival Pack, start painting the traced Kalamkari design.
  • Focus on the traditional color palette of browns, reds, greens, and blacks to bring intricate details to life.
  •  Once all the painted designs are fully dry, your beautifully handcrafted Kalamkari nameplate is ready!
  • You can now write or stick the name in the central space to personalize it for your home.
