Reglan Kol Çalışması (Minik Laleler Başı)

Çok Tarz Bir Cepken Modeli (Blazer Ceketimize Takım)

Flower deco in my house

There are six seasons in India, each season brings with it the bloom of different flowers. It is the season  of Sawan flowers which I have brought inside the house to decorate with.
And I love putting flowers in recycled vases.........


That's why,I  inculcate in me very simple, and very customizable way, to bring seasonal flowers into the home. And yes, these are beer bottles. But the same can be done with wine bottles. Just clean, and if you like, decorate, empty wine bottles, fill them part way with some cool water and one or two fresh flowers. Boom,seasonal renewal, done.


i love the mat its on i made this table mat with recycled poly bags years back.

Rain today


Yesterday it was a bit of dim and dreary here in Hisar-the sky was grey, it rained in the evening only for 30 minutes, but  everything was a bit damp and horrid.


rain drops on my blooms 
Don't know why monsoon got angry for our city. It is raining in all the surrounding areas, but there is a draught -like situation here.

Recycled wreaths for porch



Many times some articles were stolen in from  our verandah, so I decorate it with recycled craft,and plants.

I am always creating new displays for this corner of our front portico. It is outdoors and protected on all the three  sides by walls and half of it is overhead by a roof. I have often thought of using terra cota and  paper crafted,and other recycled craft items items for display here and finally decided to test it out.

I created a  winter wreath using  using dry grass from front park,a pressure gasket and some fabric pieces from my sewing. I created ribbons from fabric pieces  and hung them from a wreath frame also wrapped in ribbon.

 

 

For this summer wreath I cut a thermocol sheet into ring that I got from our new microwave packing .i pasted wooden pieces that I got from pruning our front park tree ,I sprayed all the pieces with a coating of acrylic sealer by Mod Podge.  They have been hanging for two weeks, through 2 rain storms and are stilling looking great. 

 

I have a wonderful front portico. It has entries to both the rooms it is on the east side of the house and has a bright corner. For many years I keep changing this corner with different crafty articles .

Here is that same corner last year with the  recycled pot with my caladium. The pot was much easier to make but because I had used it for several years I needed to try something new.

What’s your philosophy in Life?


reblogged from my another blog.

My Philosophy....

While studying my B.Sc. in Home Science in 1st year, the subject expert for the course Home-Management was not available in our University College. So the subject was taught by the teacher of Extention major. Almost whole class was awarded F grade. Reason the even the first chapter that contained the concept of philosophy, value and standard, the concept was not clear for all of us….. the book for the course was Home Management by Nickle and Dorsy!

Philosophy here…..

Here's a fun quiz!

For me….

You scored as utilitarianism. Your life is guided by the principles of Utilitarianism: You seek the greatest good for the greatest number.



“The said truth is that it is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and wrong.”
--Jeremy Bentham


“Whenever the general disposition of the people is such, that each individual regards those only of his interests which are selfish, and does not dwell on, or concern himself for, his share of the general interest, in such a state of things, good government is impossible.”
--John Stuart Mill

Thread crochet

 


Thread crochet is one of my favorite types of crochet. I've made loads of doilies and table cloths,purses,stolls crocheted in thread and I think only a few of them are still in my possession. They make wonderful gifts! I've shown some of them before, here , here and here.












i crocheted this tablecloth last month it took me 2 months to complete it.
 I have had sewing thread spools for long time and my mission was to use them up . I used them in three fold and used 8 No crochet hook for the central part I crocheted granny squares and joined them with ridge stitch then I crochet several rounds in deferent colours,again I crocheted granny squares and for the edges I made fringes using the same thread they are looking like rok,waaah!
.i made two table clothes ,I still have many granny squares left I will make use of them in another project and will show you. Ok1

I will show another one in next blog. This makes my stock of sewing spools which were in polyester  finished. And I will now I will buy new stock of sewing threads.


Most of the thread crochet that I did is usually very big  and

 took lots of my time, but my mother seems to be attracted 

to Really smallthread crochet projects,like laces for her
 
peticot, picots for her suits,and chunnies etc..etc  I've 

shown 

you a few of them before, here and here.
