What is life?




Tonight, as I write this post, I hear the clinking of the spoon in the kitchen, Akash is brewing coffee for me, It was a request from me for a cup of hot coffee... 

This clicking sound takes me far deeper in my thoughts, and I think, what is life?

It is being born
Being loved my your family
Making friends
falling in love
having to undergo heart breaks
sulking about being treated unfairly
Falling in love again
dreaming of a future
setting up  goals
working hard for achieving your goal
then realizing that not all your goals were realistic
feeling depressed
getting married
those initial years when love is in the air :)
having a baby
then everything about the baby, all the time baby baby  baby
ouch! occasional skirmishes over the baby
Well, that's what is happening in here right now ;)

My coffee is brewed and absolutely ready...I am going to gulp it down, lie in the arms of my sweetheart, close my eyes, and stop the tape that is playing out in my head, that says, "what is life? :)

Good night!!

DIY - Lingerie Bag





When it comes to organizing things for traveling, I am a big freak, 
Travelling gets my adrenaline rush surging and that sets in motion a chain reaction of thoughts, starting from planning and organizing every little thing. I like to organize and pack things in style, I love to spend my hours sorting things meticulously before locking up the door!

This time around I made/upscaled a drawstring cloth bag into a Travel lingerie bag.






Supplies:

An old cotton drawstring bag
Stamp
Fabric paint
Brush
Sponge


 Dribble the color on the palette, place a layer of sponge sheet on top of it, firmly press your stamp on the sheet, and then simply stamp the pattern on the cotton bag one by one, using sponge sheet ensures that your stamp is colored evenly. Let it dry completely and then you can pack your valuables in it and carry your things in Style ;)










I totally love the concept of DIY, it breaks the monotony of life and lets you dig deeper into your creativity, and is an excellent stress buster.
