Pearls Set

Who doesn't like pearls-white and milky.

This neck piece is made of creamy white seed pearls, bigger sized round pearls, gold beads, red and green cut beads. The pendants with matching earrings are made of white stone studded metallic drops with antique finish. 

It was worth all the effort put into it, choosing the materials or assembling them. The design is trendy and not too heavy. It can be worn with most of the dresses or saris. Not too flashy so OK for small parties or gatherings and also for office wear on special occasions.

Rangoli-267

Republic Day Special

Wishing you all                               

A very Happy Republic Day on the 

occasion of 64th Republic Day......

Update:
Someone asked me how I get ideas for Rangolis. For this Republic day I wanted to create something different, unique and creative and also big. 

I started as usual with our national flag. Then I went on to add lotus which is our national flower. Then I got stuck. I had lots of dots before me in a haphazard fashion. I kept on trying different shapes. I struggled like that for nearly 2-3 days. Then I thought I could fit in some peacocks(our national bird). But that too was very difficult. I could some how fit the birds. But I struggled with their tails. Once I was satisfied by the peacocks, there still were some loose dots left in the center. Then I drew some lotus buds carried by the peacocks. Suddenly it was a perfect Rangoli. 

My struggles and trails were worth it because this Rangoli gave me immense satisfaction.
