Patriotism for our Tricolour flag

A National celebration is underway.School kids are gearing up for Independence day.In most societies,members take great pride in hoisting  our  Indian flag. In short, one can feel the patriotism fervor running high everywhere in the country.

At the same time, like every year, this time too I am concerned about the state of our flag once the day is over. We buy them as tokens to exhibit our love for the nation but then at the end of the day, they lie on the roads uncared for? That's an insult. Don't you feel so?

This Independence day,Clean Planet introduces a unique and contemporary pouch that embraces Indian crafts and helps you to retain your national flag even after the celebrations are over."The Indigenous India Pouch is Clean Planet's tribute to the rich cultural traditions of India,in the form of Katha Hand Embroidery on Eco Friendly cotton.A handcrafted interpretation of the tri-colour flag of India, carry this Eco Stylish pouch as a badge of patriotism. The Indigenous India pouch is hand embroidered by young women as part of a livelihood program run by Clean Planet"

A Batua and A Kantha Embroidery

Last month on my anniversary,I got some valuable gifts..two of which I want to share with all of you.It will be the most treasured ones..always.

They are handmade by my mother...that makes it all the more special..

BATUA
Intrestingly,the mirrors on either side of the batua are recycled.they are taken off from the handheld plastic mirrors that one often gets in all our haldi-kumkum functions.(I wonder do people really use them!)

Kantha Embroidery on the front panel of salwar kameez

She is always been my inspiration and source for instilling in me  decor sense. With whatever we had, her hands used to make it appealing. I remember the times when we used to move places every 4-5 years and we had this big wooden boxes or trunks.she would cover it with the best bed spread.keep some cushions on it and lo! it changed into a seating.

Many people appreciate my sense of styling in our home and today I want to attribute and give these credits to my loving Ma.
