Glimpses from the past 1...
In the up coming weeks I will be posting pics of few hand painted sarees and dresses that I have done some 12 - 14 years back. I apologize for the poor quality of the pics as they were taken more than a decade ago. Here comes the first set of pics...

Hand Painted Saree...
A very dear friend of mine was moving back to India, though I was not happy with the news I wanted to give her something handmade by me which she will cherish for a long time.
After a lot of thinking I came up with idea of gifting her a hand painted saree, she did not want any floral designs and asked me to do something different and something close to Mehendi designing. Now that was a challenge for me as I have never done a full saree in this style. Earlier I have done many sarees with floral free hand painting, but never a mehendi kind of designing and was afraid that I may not be able to do an entire saree without repeating the design, but to my surprise I have improved a lot and did the entire saree free hand without repeating the design anywhere.
I am really happy with the work and my friend loved the saree, now here are the pics for you all...

The color palette I have chose is very unique but goes really well along with the blouse. |
Everything that looks white in this pic is actually painted using silver glitter to go along with the border. |
The self blue color I have used is once again glitter |
