DIY : Pom Pom Flowers

I am into making crochet and cute stuffs with woolen yarn these days. Today being saturday, literally a break from tension and work, I chose to do something beautiful with wool. I was bored to do crochet though. So with the help of craftgawker, I found a way to do Pom Pom Flowers.

Here is the step by step tutorial for the same.

Wow! Instant Flower vase in my bedroom! I am loving it. Craftgawker is making me crazy these days..

Chennai Trade Center Exhibition :2012

Last weekend, after doing all organising works in house, myself and my hubby were both bored to be at home. So we decided to visit a local exhibition which I found out from the newspaper. The exhibition held at Chennai Trade Centre which had stall for property, automobiles, interior decoration lots more.

My hubby and his friend's family made our way to the exhibition early that evening. There was entry fee. We filled lucky dip coupons.Friend's family included two little kids. It was fun being with them.

The first few stalls were filled with cars which included Toyota's , Fords, and lot more varaities of cars.

The second section was full of sofas, beds, furnitures.

The next stall were treat to eyes which included decorators, bronze idols, lights, etc

 The display of lights grabbed my attention. They were awesome. The prize of those light bit more, but the are washable and long lasting

 They were few picnic dinners, The demo of this attracted many people. One can buy this if the family has kids and if they are accustomed to picnics..

 

The stall next was showcasing antique clocks and paintings. Each piece was awesome.

Wooden idols and marble idols, swings expresses the creative hand workers and their talents.

Few fern and floral stalls out there.

 Jewellery stall .............. Awwwwwwwww! Beautiful beaties from Malaysia were displayed..

Gollu 2011 : Photographic Post

This year, I made a good arrangement for Gollu. I applied for a day off and did all the arrangement myself. After completeing a small but neat Gollu, I felt satisfied and happy. I invited all my close relatives and friends.

Everyone I called came to visit our Gollu. Mr. N gave a good company. My creativity nerve  also contributed a bit to this event this year. I made Lord Ganesha and Lord Shiva out of colourful clay blocks. I was thrilled.

Most important thing which made me happy is my parents made it from Thanjavur to visit my small gollu. I was excited to the core.

Check out the pictures of our Gollu 2011.
