"SC-S30/W4| "Cardboard painting 🖌️"||

Hello dear friends,

How are you all? I hope you are well. I am also fine by the grace of Allah. Today, I have come to participate in the fouth week of the Steemit Challenge SLC-S30/W4, organized by the Honorable Teacher @sualeha ma'am. As a student, I am eager to participate and learn a great deal from the challenges. And I feel proud to participate in this challenge.

Now I will create recycled painting crafts according to the instructions provided by the respected teacher, @sualeha ma'am. Before starting to make the craft, I will introduce everyone to its materials.
Materials for making the craft-

✏️Ingredients to make the painting: -✏️

Now I am making the craft according to the instructions of the respected organizer and I am presenting its tutorial below-

🎨Step-1

• Today I will make a part of a beautiful watermelon with cardboard. I will hang the part of the watermelon as a key to keep in the house. Before starting to make the craft, I take a piece of cardboard.
• I make a 90-degree angle in one part of the board. And cut it with the help of the geometry box sheet with scissors.
• Following the same method, I make three parts.

🎨Step-2

• Now I take one of the 90-degree boards and mix super glue in it.
• Take any other board and place it on the part where the glue is applied.
  Similarly, I place another board in the same way. That is, I place three boards, one on top of the other.
  And wait until the super glue is properly set.

🎨Step-3

• I make another border on the board with the help of a pencil.
• Now I take a green color from the paste color.
• I paint the color on the board as shown below.
• Along with this, I paint the sides of the board as well.

🎨Step-4

• Now I will make a handle to hang the keys.
• For this, I take a pen. I twist a thin board on the pen as shown below.
• Then I superglue the end of the board.
• I make another handle in the same way.

🎨Step-5

• Now I apply super glue to one end of the handle.
• Again, I take a small board and attach the glued end to the board.
• Now I cut off the excess part of the board with scissors.
• In the same way, I make two handles.

🎨Step-6

• Now I decorate the handles with green paint. And I give some time for the colors to dry.

🎨Step-7

• Now I create a design with pastel color on the part that was previously painted green.

🎨Step-8

• Now I paint the rest of the board red. A watermelon is a combination of red and green. Since most of the watermelon is red, I decorate the board with red paint.

🎨Step-9

• There are many seeds inside the watermelon. So I make many seeds step by step with black paste paint.

🎨Step-10

• Now I place the two handles I made earlier on the board. For this, I apply super glue on both ends of the handle and attach it to the board.

🎨Step-11

• A beautiful craft for hanging keys is finished.
• Now I will hang the board on the wall. For this, I make a hole in the board with the help of a needle. I put yarn there.
• And I prepared the board to hang on the wall.

🎨Step-12

• I put a screw on the wall and hung the watermelon craft I made.

🎨Step-13

• Now I fulfill the purpose for which I made the craft, that is, I hang the keys on the watermelon craft.

🎨Step-14

• Now I take a picture with the craft I made. And finish making the craft.

Yes—I believe that painting with recycled materials is generally a very environmentally friendly task. Here are some reasons for this.-

• By reusing recycled materials such as old paper and cardboard instead of throwing them away, less waste accumulates in landfills and is also burned. As a result, the possibility of environmental pollution is greatly reduced.
• Using recycled materials saves us money and brings human peace of mind.
• Using recycled materials, I do not have to buy new materials again and again, which reduces the demand for raw materials, thus consuming fewer resources.
• Encourages sustainable living: Recycling develops the habit of thinking creatively about "waste". Our lives are strengthened, and our work ethic increases.

I am not a professional artist; I am an amateur artist who occasionally paints for the pleasure of my heart. I have not acquired any academic knowledge for drawing; I rely on the education of my childhood school teachers.
So today I made the craft, although it seems good to me, in the eyes of a professional, there are many mistakes. So I am satisfied and dissatisfied at the same time after making the craft. I am satisfied because I have been able to make a beautiful craft in my eyes. Again, I am dissatisfied because when a professional sees my craft, he may find many mistakes, which is a reflection of my inexperience. For this reason, I am satisfied and dissatisfied at the same time.

I invite three of my friends to join the challenge
