Let's Begin..
This is not my first post and this is not my first blog either.
I have been writing about random things, sometimes fictional mostly true on this space for the past 6 years.
Then why this blog?
Time and again I talk about giving it back to the society. While there are 1000 ways to give it back to the society the idea of reusing and recycling is closest to my heart.
We live in an era of convenience. The spending power has increased in my part of the world and sometimes it is just convenient to dump things and buy new ones.
Why dump things when you can reuse, recycle, refashion, upcycle or whatever the jargon is these days? It will lead to less wastage. I come from the times when wearing hand me downs from my cousins was cool. There was something special about it. It connected us in an unspoken way.
I am not against spending money but I am against dumping things too quickly. Also, I don't like to spend money where my first reaction is "Oh, I could have made that at home".
I was always an avid crafter but recently I have become an active one.
I came back to India last year and since then I am on that "great job hunt". I decided to use my free time to pursue my hobbies and I realized that I had so many ideas. I actually have started thinking in terms of reuse, recycle, refashion. I have created some really nice things. It gives me a great satisfaction.
Of course, Pinterest has been a great source of inspiration for me and so have been many other people. The main ones are MG ( Meanie Greenie) and Gunj.
Gunj and I share our common love for crafts and I keep taking her guidance in my projects.
So, It has been hell of a long post. Lets create beautiful things.. Your comments are welcome and looking forward to them.
You will find a mish mash of arts and crafts here. Feel free to get in touch with me..
Ciao..
