Rangoli: Knitted cap

I got a knitting kit for a Christmas present. I finally made use of it in one of the weekends, and knitted a cap for my kitty! Yesterday I finished knitting a blue cap for myself. I'm putting it to good use. I already wore it to school to show my teacher and all my friends. My mom has asked me to make her a cap too!

Rangoli: My teddy bears

I had my 5th birthday party in a place called "Build a bear workshop". It is a place where they help you build your own bear. They provide you with some of the basic materials like the fur, filler-material and bows. It was fun to build our own bears!

Last year, I decided to dress up my bears with different outfits. Finding a pretty outfit for my girl teddy bear was easy, I just took one of my outgrown formal dresses. But for the boy teddy bear, I had to think and come up with a few ideas. Everyone in my family laughed when I showed them my boy teddy bear wearing a rug around him. He had one of my mom's silk blouse borders for a towel over his shoulder. I thought they looked very nice!
What do you think?

Rangoli: Wall hanging

This was made out of beads. We can use colourful beads for this. We can also frame this.

Rangoli: Fabric painting in saree (synthetic)

This is a simple pattern suited for light coloured sarees. Can reverse colours, like yellow flowers on copper brown saree. I used copper glitter paint for flowers and sea and leaf green glitter paint for leaf. Decorate border with bunches and mid area with single flowers adorned with golden yellow stones at center. Mix a drop of water for loading the brush. Excess water would spread and smudge the design. I used zero size brush, can use no 2 if you want bold flowers.
