So I decided to mention some tips and tricks to keep handmade jewellery safe and to keep them clean.

This week allow me to be little more close to our Mother Earth. Yes! I am taking you to our little-grassy-lawn to find out the colourful insects around us. You heard right, I meant INSECTS, really! May be because of my craziness to crafts-making or may be to be little bit odd, I thought, let me bring together natural insects and my crafts. So I started picking up some real moments to get involved in my new project "The Insects Series" in a shape of handmade Earrings. I found the colourful butterfly, sweet honeybee or even the scary bedbug/ladybird will be interesting subjects which ladies won't mind to wear on their ears. But it must look like the original one as well as light weight.  To be very honest, this idea came to my mind when I was making the Multi-purpose Table Pot (you can read the article here ).

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.

You won't believe the base coat of black color was done by him only. Isn't it exciting?
