Colour Pencil Holder

I announced for a break of week or so. But when I saw the date of my last post I was alarmed and ashamed. As almost two months were over. Time runs so fast every time. And our busy life travels in the time machine where in a wink distance we travel a long span. Last two months passed quiet in a busy schedule. Even now in future I am going to face much more busy days as now the time has come to pack our bag and baggage again and leave our this bohemian nest and to shift to another new country. The feeling is mixed- I am happy to see my mom, dad and sister after a long time, but I am sad too to leave this beautiful peaceful place forever. But the memories, for sure, will work as the nectar to sooth in my low days. Though I am back, can't promise to be regular. The load of packing is slowing making me crazy. And I am sorry that I am missing all of your wonderfull posts. Anyways, let me share something with you, with the hope you will like it.

Here is a small creation I made for my daughter few months back. The main intention of making this Colour Pencil Holder, is to make my daughter more colour conscious each time she is going to use her colour pencils. Every time she will use the pencils , will keep it in the proper place and come to know about the colour coordination and on the other hand it will slowly teach her matching the same things. Teaching colors to the kid is quite easy if you follow the simple prescript. Take one colour a day, talk about the colour and give the colour to your kid's hand and tell him/her to match the colour with the things around him/her. This way they learn very fast to identify the colours. Here is the small creation of mine which is  also one of the best examples of Best out of waste.

Things you need-

1. Coloured papers

2. A hard board for the base

3. Empty yoghurt cans

4. Glue/cello tape

How to make:-

1. Cover the yoghurt cans with different coloured papers.

2. Stick them on the Base.

3. And your Colour Pencil Holder is ready.

Return Gifts

I always have a special place in my heart and respect for those who are blessed with creativity. Either in the world of arts, crafts and literature or in the musical rhythmic world, where ever it is, creative personalities always deserve a special extolment.

From my childhood I am prone towards in of making creative stuffs. I always prefer to present a gift to my friends making something by my hand rather than buying something instant from the shops. This habit doesn’t change after my marriage too. My neighbours cum friends in USA threw a wonderful Baby Shower Party to welcome my baby during my nine months. Whenever I remind that day it overwhelms my heart with a joy knew no bound. Their generous greetings and caring love, shower like a blessing all the time for my baby. On that occasion I wanted to present the hostesses something special made by my hand which would honour my feelings for them. But at that time my health didn’t permit for a huge task which takes a lot of energy. After fighting a lot with my constructive thoughts I turned up with those tiny designed glasses. I went to the shop, bought some Stem less Wine Glasses, coloured tissue papers, assorted chocolate, silver and golden glass painting colour and small gift bags. I designed the glasses with the golden and silver paintings. Covered few assorted chocolate with a piece of tissue paper and pour in to each glass. Then along with a greeting card, penning down few lines direct from my heart, I put each glass in to the gift bags. That was my small return gifts for them bestowing my honour.

Reason behind Gifting this:-

Glass always symbolises a transparency. Every long-lasting relationship based on the faith and transparency. On the other hand a drinking glass symbolises the womb. Designing the glass I imprinted my touch of love and respect for them. The chocolates symbolises the sweetness of a relationship cuddled in love. On the other hand the womb is filled with the sweetness of love. Whenever each one of them would see the gift they would remember this day, the occasion, the dulcet love we have with each other and that would leave the magical incantation of blessings for my child.
