Fabric wraps for christmas gifts:)

CG projects...Christmas looks...2021

We are closing in for the celebration and lot of excitement in the air for the big day. Last minute shopping, decorating, baking,wrapping up of gifts all must be happening under the roof. When it comes to wrapping up of gifts we tend to think to wrap it in most beautiful manner to give our loved ones. Lot of work involved in doing so, time consuming and a big job as well.

This time decided to go with Eco-friendly, easy to do wraps & while browsing the internet for Eco-friendly wrap's came across and also caught my eyes...Japanese way of wrapping the gifts with fabrics. "Furoshiki' is the term used and the technique easy to do.

Selected few silk materials which I had for the wrap. Indian silk is known for its textile heritage. Wrapped the gifts with the materials and added pine cones, and gold & silver Xmas beads on the knots. Fabric gift wraps are Eco-friendly and can be reused as a napkin, scarf or as a bandana. Sometime to think outside the box to wrap up a box makes a statement and a signature style.

Diwali With Lights

The word Deepavali stems from the Sanskrit words, Deepa meaning ‘Light’ and Avali meaning ‘Row’. It means a row of lights and illumination is undoubtedly its main attraction. Deepavali, the festival of lights, even to this day, projects the rich and glorious past of our country and teaches us to uphold the true values of life.

Shades of Green

This is September, and the month offers its own fresh start to many things. Here in India, it is the beginning of festivities and celebrations for the next few coming weeks. These are the days of showers too, and it is truly refreshing & soothing to see the plants and trees after every brief shower. The moist leaves give us an impression that they are happy and smiling and breathing a 'Thank You' for the fresh green look. I love the colour green and as we all know it is one of Mother Natures primary colours. The green stem is honoured and credited to hold every flower of different colours. That's awesome. Inspiration comes from every where and the colour green inspired me to do a scape, with the green touch. I collected the green ware from the racks and putting it together as a teascape was pleasing to the eyes like the happy greenery around us. Sometimes it is wonderful to have tea and treat ourselves amongst a small collection of green plants. M
