Shankh is a conch shell and it has a strong association with Hindu religion. It emits divine energy when it is blown. An idea came to mind to make a sankh which can be blown .
Material used:- waste newspaper,
tissue paper, glue and white pearl acrylic color.
It was made in two parts and the idea was taken of a real shankh. The thin polythene sheet was wrapped on the upper side of the shankh and fixed with adhesive tape.Thereafter, it was covered with the waste news paper pieces completely. Good number of layers were wrapped to raise its thickness and left to dry in sunlight for 2-3 days. The same procedure was followed to make the lower side.
Both dried parts were put together in such a way that the object looked like natural shape of shell. Both pieces were attached with the help of newspaper and glue and kept in sunlight to become dry. The shape of uneven thorny edge of shankh was given by placing heaps of lugdi of tissue paper and diluted glue. Raw sankh was ready . 4-5 layers of tissue paper were wrapped with the diluted glue. and it was again dried . A ball made from tissue paper and glue was fixed on the top rounded shape. White pearl color was painted on dried sankh.
