Teas cape with shrivelled mums:)

  Sharing a evening tea setting with half  dried flowers of mums. Chrysanthemums/mums are beautiful  at this time of the year and are planted for their beauty. We had them in four pots which bloomed beautifully and lasted for quiet  sometime. The stems were removed from the plant when they started to wilt and was kept aside. The bunch  looked so pretty and wild to look at and never felt like hurling them away. A evening teas cape was done with  half dried mums and  loved capturing these shots with candle light. Flowers express themselves beautifully in every stage from bud to half bloom to full bloom and the beauty is found even when they are shrivelled.

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...

With coffee becoming the new fad, this refreshing anytime beverage wooes us in its many new avatars. A good cup of coffee can really work wonders if you are seeking relaxation after a hard days work or gearing up for the day. A true coffee lover would like to have his cuppa without milk but most Indians prefer it with a dash of milk and some cream on top. Coffee is based on its appeal to ones senses - Smell, Taste, Touch, and Sound. With so many varied ways of brewing coffee where every method leaves behind a unique taste, it is but natural for one to fall in love with this elixir of life.

Being a avid coffee drinker myself, I m happy to present to you, my round table corner with Egyptian Motif Coffee mugs and a smoked glassware setting. Guests have enjoyed sipping the hot coffee from these beautiful mugs which I purcha...
