Greeting fellow steemians! How are you today? I hope you all are fine as I am. I want to first appreciate @mesola for organising and sustaining this contest which has allowed us to improve our skills. Today I have constructed a wall hanger for keeping Biros, scissors, toothbrushes and so on. Because this is a community for parents and kids, I have decided to construct or craft this wall hanger in the form of a dog and I am sure everyone will like it.

Step 1
I peeled one side of a carton and used it to draw a dog which I started from the head. I drew a big circle which serves as the head. I then drew the two ears, the two eyes nose and the mouth. Lastly, I drew the body of the dog.

Step 6
I gummed the 7cm by 40cm long paper on the half-body of the dog using an evostic gum and after that, I gummed it on the body of the dog I made in step 1 above using an evostik gum. I also added a top bond to it to make firm and able to hold items that are a little bit heavy.

Step 7
I drew two small circles on black embossed paper and cut them out. I also drew two smaller circles on a white plane paper, cut them out and then gummed each on the small black circles to form the eyes of the dog. I also drew the nose and mouth on black embossed paper and cut it out. Finally, I gummed both the eyes and nose on the face of the dog.

Step 8
I drew the feet of the dog and coloured it red using acrylic colour. I also cut two small circles from black embossed paper. I gummed the feet of the dog on the small circle and gummed on the wall hanger.

Step 11
I cut a red ribbon, folded it and gummed at the back of the wall hanger using evostic gum and top bond. The ribbon will be used to hang the craft on the wall. This brought me to the end of my craft construction.
