Leibster blog award

I was very pleased when I saw my Liebster Blog Award. Thank you Angelin for thinking of me. I am so sorry for posting it so late..but with lots of stuff going on in life...this just had to wait..

The idea of the Liebster Blog Award is to spread the love from one small blog (under 200 followers) to other small blogs. This helps to spread knowledge and readership.

To accept the award, you must:
1) Link back to the person who gave it and thank them for thinking of you.
2) Post the award to your blog.
3) Give the award to 5 bloggers (with less than 200 followers) that you appreciate and value.
4) Leave a comment on the blogs of the five people you have chosen to let them know.

So... It is time to pass this this award to:
- My sweet sister Jyoti of My Craft Work.
- Another of my sweet sister (u c the award shd be in the family ;))Sonal of Palate corner
- Megha of Kala Veethika
- Nupur of Nupur Creatives
- Smita of Kreativity and me
- Mansi of Creative vision by mansi

Fabric painting

When I started learning fabric painting(some 11-12 yrs ago), my sweetu mom got so excited..she brought so many different stuffs for me to paint on..cushion covers, saree, curtains, table covers, hankys to name a few..!! But alas, I did not fancy fabric painting too much and soon got bored with it. Below are the cushion cover fronts that I painted..did not complete the entire set..hence instead of cushions..one of them now adorns our decade old desktop (which still works better than lp's ) .

Hope you like them..thanks for stopping by :)

Hand made envelops 1

Warli?? looks like my latest obsession ;)
Its a form of Tribal painting, Warli is extensively practiced by the 'aadivasis' (Tribals) of Maharashtra region. Simple geometric patterns that depict the lifestyle of tribes is the essence of this art.

Made these traditional envelops using the old wedding invitations. Decorated them with ceramic paint. Never used ceramic before..gave this a try after my cute sister guided on the basics of ceramic.


Used punched flowers and pearl color in this hand made envelop.

Baby book cover - Tvisha

Created this baby book cover for my friends baby girl. I attached a cute teddy tag on the bookmark. May God shower all his love on the little one and bring lots of happiness this new year. Hope all three of them like it :)
