Handmade gifts!!

Lazy me...It took so many days to start this post ...

        With me doing quilling more vigorously and trying new stuff, I am loving making things and gifting people.. .There is always a special feel when you receive any handmade gift...It just tells us that they have spent some precious time in thinking and making a gift rather than a store bought one.

        Here are some..I made a photo frame for BIL's birthday.... Totally love the way few basic things like cardboard, hand made paper and some quilling ..transformed into a beautiful frame.. Have tried Husking, Quilling comb and Beehive techniques to do the grass, tree and the flower (in right bottom of the frame) respectively...

Which part do you like most!!Colorful tree or Grass or Rainbow or The clouds...My personal favorite is clouds <3 <3



        I love book reading...There were times I used to read books till late night and still remember the struggl to wake up in the morning to reach office...Now a days I am not reading much..not because of lack of time...My laziness plays a big part here...For self motivation, I made this bookmark for myself by recycling an old calendar for the heart and some old twine ....

        Just to see this book mark, I open my books once in a while ;-) What to do..Lazy me dominating the reader in me ....

Don't you love those three flowers!!
Thats all for now guys...I would love to see your comments in my blog :)

Mom ...An All Rounder

     Just back from mom's place after having great time for couple of weeks... I was thinking on the topic to write about and what's best .. here u go.. my mom.. an all rounder... Those who know her in person will agree with me.she does everything.. she is the best cook.. she is into stitching... designing.... embroidery....crocheting..all DIY stuff.. what not.. everything....she is very artistic and creative.. Until recently, I used to wonder why is her creative gene dint come to me.. now I think it is slowly coming to me... Seeing my mom juggle between all these works and yet have that passion in everything she does...it definitely inspires.... Love her energy <3 <3

     Last year I wanted to quill something to my mom on her birthday..I was considering so many things but finally tried this mighty peacock...I really loved the way it turned out with its beautiful colors..Mom was quite happy to receive this... Now our national bird is sitting proudly in her living room..Once in a while the selfish me thinks to steal it from her ;-).
Here it is...I wanted to share in-progress pictures but I lost them when my laptop crashed.
Almost done!

All set to get framed...
Tadaaa....finally!!

Have a happy week ...
