Clay Diya

karthiga deepam is a festival of lights.This festival involves the lighting of lamps in the homes, temples and the workplace.The idea behind this festival is to keep away bad things from life and welcome the good and holy things of life.Lamps lit with oil are a symbol of holiness in Indian culture.we lit the lamps in and around our house and also decorate it in rangoli.
                          I usually use aluminium foil to make a lamp where i cannot keep more in numbers ...so this time i tried my hands in airdryclay for making deepam .you know what ,it came out pretty.it also withstand the heat .Hope you all like it ...

Tie and dye

Tie-dye is a modern term coined in the mid-1960s in the United States for a set of ancient resist-dyeing techniques, and for the products of these processes. The process of tie-dye typically consists of folding, twisting, pleating, or crumpling fabric or a garment and binding with string or rubber bands, followed by application of dye(s). The manipulations of the fabric prior to application of dye are called resists, as they partially or completely prevent the applied dye from coloring the fabric. More sophisticated tie-dyes involve additional steps, including an initial application of dye prior to the resist, multiple sequential dye and resist steps, and the use of other types of resists (stitching, stencils) and discharge.

I tried my hands in tie and dye simply using fabric paints.i used crystal salt and folding technique to achieve these results.Hope you all like it ....
