Fabulous Finds " Bangdar Sarali"

I am delighted to feature "Bangdar Sarali"  based in New Delhi, India as this week Fabulous Find on My Dream Canvas! This venture has been started by two friends who quit their regular jobs to pursue their passion. Together they have embarked on a journey to create exclusive Experimental Fused Glass Jewelry - "Art that can be worn"

Bangdar Sarali endeavors to marry ancient European glass art techniques ( like Murano) with Indian motifs to create contemporary jewelry that is a true fusion of the two cultures. The vibrancy of colors and fluidity of shapes of fused glass art come alive in contemporary handcrafted designs, which are elegant and wearable. These distinctive accessories are truly unique by virtue of the technique of fusion used to create the pieces, which makes it impossible to recreate a design that is identical.

The two creators of Bangdar Sarali are Ikroop Dhillon, the fused glass artist and Pooja Roy Yadav, the jewelry designer. 

Connect with them on Facebook and visit their Website for more information!

Happy Shopping!

Diwali Inspiration and A Fabulous DIY

I am astounded by the immensely talented people I get to know via the blogosphere. I am DIY challenged, hence when I get to know creative people I am completely in awe :)

Given that Diwali and Christmas is coming up soon I am thrilled to share this fantastic DIY with you. Roopini of Lets Make It Lovely wrote to me recently. She was searching on the web for Diwali decor ideas and came across my lotus tea light holders( shown in the second image). I remember many of my readers loved these lotus shaped tea light holders on stakes. I bring them out every year during the festive season! Roopina created her own lotus tea light holder shown in the first image using coke cans!! I am so impressed with her creativity and glad that she reached out to me!

You can view the entire tutorial on how to make these here. Roopini is a bundle of talent and her wonderful blog is filled with creative ideas. Thank you Roopini for sharing your DIY with me! 

Are you inspired to try these out for yourself ?
