Color motif on terracotta vase

Image
Few months back my parents moved into a new apartment and my mother was looking for an exclusive item for her main door to welcome her guests. She tried different things to suit her taste but alas! nothing could satisfy her. One day we all were having tea together discussing what to land at her door-step. Suddenly my father suggests me to make something that could bring attention to all of our new visitors. This time I choose a terracotta vase to paint color motif on it. Aadi, my son was so excited in doing and helping me through the process of making it for his grandma. He helped me in sandpapering making the surface smooth and clean. You won't believe the base coat of black color was done by him only. Isn't it exciting?

Hand paint linen bed furnishing

Fashion is indispensable in our life. It comes in forms of home décor show-piece, jewellery or dress materials. We have seen beautiful printed curtains to decorate our living and drawing rooms too. It's not limited to these forms only. It can be a beautifully crafted tea table or even a small candle stand! It's all about how you decorate your surroundings reflecting your taste all around. Today I am presenting a new form of home décor / furnishing. It's in form of hand-painted linen bed cover. It's special because it's not printed. It's special because it has my personal touch, my passion. It's special because it's unique. It's special because it has a unique story to share. It's special because every line is precisely painted by hand. It's special because it's gorgeous. Photo courtesy:    my Decor8 Craft

Wall hanging: Terracotta Ganesha on Jute base

Image
As I promised in my last blog to write about a wall hanging, here is the handmade item I made. Photo courtesy:    my Decor8 Craft This beautiful home décor item is made of Jute with a terracotta Ganesha on top of it. As a base I used cardboard and wrapped jute cloth on it. A hand-paint terracotta Ganesha glued on it. And finally fixed six metal leaf petals to decorate the item and to give it a finishing touch. As border I used glittering lace to differentiate between single colour mid portion and the edge of the piece.
