Wild Fishy bag

Last month appa (my father) gave me a piece of extra carpeting from his office and i figured id bag a bag out of it, plus there was a wedding coming up and im a wee bit fed up of my coconut bag. So i made this! My very own fishy bag !! complete with most of the embroidery i know, shells, bells, and a zip from an old pair of jeans. Frankly speaking im quite proud of myself, i like the look and it an hold my phone, some money and my kaajal with room to spare.

This is the other side of the same bag. felt like changing the pattern, although i think i like the front side better.

Paper Earrings with a traditional touch

This is just something im working on in my spare time. its amazing but all the mini sculptures in the picture are made from 3/4th of the front cover of a cornflakes carton. so when you think about it, the material to make these is just lying around, doing sweet nothings, just waiting for us to come and get creative. :)

Croche-ing with waste silk yarn

Close up of the yarn, i love the colours. its basically all the waste threads after weaving the main saree. the colours are really viberent and the scope for experimentation is mind boggling. i managed to experiment with only a small quantity, and this is what i came up with ! :)

A head band for me self !!! yes i realize its a bit too thick but honestly i like it this way, i plan to hang bits of broken shells and other this and that. will post the snap when im done.
