Last month, my aunt invited us for her house warming ceremony. Since she loves plants, I thought of gifting her one. But then, I didn’t want to give it in a usual pot. So I decided on experimenting a bit. An aluminum tea pot, some acrylic colours, inspiration from my rangoli designs and voila! I had a gift which I knew she would love!
My aunt loved it it and has placed it on a lovely mahogany table at the entrance. I’ll soon be making some more – have got orders from other aunts :P. Will try some more designs then.
P.S.: 30on30 was a huge success and Prashant collected almost double the amount for the initiative! A big thank you to all those who made a contribution towards the cause in their own special way.

i love it too. i had a friend over the other day and she said i could well become an interior designer.
i dont think its such a bad option, so many people ve given up their comfy jobs to do what they love. and this is just a part of me.
remember the time wen we were in class 11/12 n we saw in the eco times how "dried flowers" were emerging as good gifting options and how their market was expanding ;-)
i still remember those times n smile to myself....and wish that one day, i can do just that...help people build beautiful homes.
love u.

Remarkable coincidence, this article. I've been thinking a lot about what a 'gift' is & what gifting means...
Needless to say, the kettle is quite wow.
This is awesome Bhumika!
Lovely! I love the chai-walla kettle:-)
So glad 30 on 30 was a great success!
Congrats!

if not for the book, we can set up our small shop of unusual and hand-picked artefacts :) infact, my horoscope for the day reads, 'you might consider leaving your job to pursue a hobby'!!! :P
and yes, dried flowers were such a rage then! and you continue to be obsessed about it...
@girish
Am glad that you brought up the topic of gifting. I think that needs a post :)
thanks for the appreciation.
@archana
thanks :) coming from you, it really makes me feel proud.
and yes, 30on30 was such a great initiative. I'm glad i could be a part of it, all thanks to Prashant.
This is beautiful Bhumika!! Bright yellow and all happy & its a lovely idea to use a teapot as a planter :) No wonder your aunts are all lined up for a bit of your art :)
I think a DIY wave is spreading through so many of us. I know atleast 5 people who've started drawing and sketching and having fun experiments with their art- including me. I will post on my blog one of these days the experiments I have been upto :)
this is beautiful :)
chai ki ketli mein hai to aur bhi sahi dikh rahi hai :)
@Vineeta
even i loved the bright yellow and it goes so well with the green of the plant :)
do share your work and other interesting DIY projects
@omie
i knew you would like it and i actually thought of giving this for the 'chaibaaz' posts on ur blog.
Hi Bhumika,
Came to your blog through the 30ON30 link. Congrats on the success and off course a lovely pot..

@sreenisreedharan
welcome to the blog! thanks for your appreciation :) yea, i love the bright yellow with the green of the plant.
hi bhumika! loved the teapot, do you do acrylics directly on the aluminium? have been wanting to try some stuff.
@kalyani
thanks :) yea, i applied acrylic directly to the aluminium. wanted to apply varnish to the pot but then i liked the matte effect.
btw, i simply love your work. how can i get some for myself?
wow i love the kitlee as they call it. great work bhumika.
Love this.
I'm sure your Aunt like it because, aside from it being creatively done, it's also a labor of love.
@megha
yes the 'kitlee culture' - as they call it in a'bad. thanks for your appreciation :)

Generic Viagra (sildenafil citrate; brand names include: Aphrodil / Edegra / Erasmo / Penegra / Revatio / Supra / Zwagra) is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction regardless of the cause or duration of the problem or the age of the patient.
Sildenafil Citrate is the active ingredient used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men. It can help men who have erectile dysfunction get and sustain an erection when they are sexually excited.
Generic Viagra is manufactured in accordance with World Health Organization standards and guidelines (WHO-GMP). Also you can find on our sites.
Generic [url=http://viagra.wilantion.ru]Viagra 100mg pills[/url] is made with thorough reverse engineering for the sildenafil citrate molecule - a totally different process of making sildenafil and its reaction. That is why it takes effect in 15 minutes compared to other drugs which take 30-40 minutes to take effect.

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
wow nice kettles.Great idea
