Reduce,Reuse,Rycycle- Part 2

Part 1 on the three R's was liked by many.so here comes the 2nd part.






This is a large pot used to store tamrind in large quantity.
My mother in law's elders passed it to her when they were shifting their house and my MIL has converted it into an intresting piece.









I also have a wish!
I hope it is passed onto me and also to several other generations to come.
and may be one day it will be called an antique piece!
Amen!

Reduce,Reuse,Recycle

So much is always said about conservation of our resources,or rather wastage of resources.
Well.. we may not always be in a position to set everything right but why not start at our level?

For a start my mom - (The source of my inspiration, for all things beautiful) suggested a unique way.what do you do with your old clothes that remain stunning even after years of wear.Giveaway to someone needy or may be they remain in your cupboard for old time sake.How about reusing them or using them to make another beautiful something...hmmm,  my mom has beautifully used some old duppatas to make bedsheets, table runners and covers. She has used the APPLIQUE technique in embroidery for making these covers and besheets
