Today we are going to feature one of her such unique wall decor idea that inspired me to make one of my own. A puppet wall hanging is a simple yet elegant way of decorating your walls and is a different way to add traditional tough to your space. Lets start on how can you create this space of your own.

Products used:

Puck lights –https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07K1RK2SC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Puppets – Same store but not the same one I bought. https://www.amazon.in/Craftuno-Leather-Painted-Foldable-Puppet/dp/B010MPU2AK/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=craftuno+puppets&qid=1570817200&sr=8-3

Hang the puppets:

To hang the puppets, she used plain white twine thread. There are nodes on the back of the puppets, joining the parts,which gives the ability to maneuver them during the show. she tied one end of the thread to these nodes and took the other end all the way straight up to the ceiling and stuck the other end with a small transparent tape. Repeated the same with 4-5 nodes on each. As they are hung by individual nodes and from vertically above, these puppets can move and you can also maneuver the parts as well.

Attach lights:

Adding lights is a good way to elevate the puppets and gives a new dimension to them.

For the lights behind, it had to be wireless puck lights. She used rechargeable puck lights with motion sensor so that they get on when the puppets move!!! Such a cool idea 🙂

They have a small 3M sticker on the back of a magnet. Stick the magnetic strip to the wall at the desired spot and the puck light can be taken on/off. It is that simple! It came with a charging cable also. Each light has a on, off & auto mode. When in auto mode, it turns on based on motion.
