Shindle with Decoupaged 3-D Lighthouse Motif

This plaster of Paris shindle makes a nice decoration for the bathroom especially in the summer. The 3-D lighthouse makes one think of warm beaches and the ocean.

For this project you will need:

- poured ceramic form or a similar form out of wood or another material
- paper napkin with lighthouse design
- a modelling clay
- paper napkin applique glue
- seashells
- raffia

1. Follow the instructions for paper napkin applique and also the instructions for the modelling clay. The first paper napkin lighthouse gets glued directly onto the shindle form. Adhere a second lighthouse onto the modelling clay as teh instructions require and cut out with a craft knife, once dried a bit. 
2. Once both lighthouses are prepared and ready, glue the clay lighthouse onto the form.
3. Once dry, hot glue found seashells onto the form and decorate with raffia as seen in picutre.
4. Drill a hole in the top of the form if one is not already there and hang with raffia.
