it is a doll madeup of pop with only Head, Hands And Upper body only.
I have placed the upper body and head on an iron stand, stuffed with news paper to give it proper curves and wrapped a complete 6yards sari around the stand, putting my jewellery on it to cover the joints at neck.
I am sharing this with you all so that you can also try it out at your place.
Any queries about this is most welcome.
very simple rangoli starts from 5 dots to 9 dots..
This is a dotted kolam. dot count for this kolam is 10x10.straight dots.
Marapaachi dolls for Golu section.
Decorated marapachi with red/gold beads, silk cloth and gold satin ribbon for borders. The single earring on the male is coz my husband wears one!
Mysore Dasara is in full swing, so this could be good one to share. GanDaBherunDa is an imaginary bird with two heads. Wodeyars have a very beautiful and precious GanDaBherunDa made out gold and decked with diamonds and rubies, will try to get that picture and upload here. One can see all those precious jewels exhibition in the palace during the 9days Dasara festival.
