Interchangeable flower cap

This is a cap I made with interchangeable flowers which can be worn with various outfits.

I hope my cute lil niece will look like a fashonista in these.The flowers are made with felt with hooks at the back to fix onto the cap. The flowers can be attached to bags and clothes etc.Choose a different colour everyday.

My daughters first card

This is my LO first card ever. It is for her dear cousin who was born on valentines day far away in Australia.Looking forward to making many more with her. Guess one day she will teach me how to make stuff.

Foam

 Foam has a lovely texture. These are some characters I made inspired by nature . These can be used as puppets or wall decorations instead of the expensive wall decals. Its vibrant colours can brighten up a plain white wall.I think I need to use  a sharp blade next time to get perfect edges. But then I like the handmade look about it.

Clay

I enjoy working with clay I feel its really therapeutic.I always dreamt of having a potters wheel a mini oven like the one they have in school and a workspace to myself . I am sure its going to be quiet a messy workspace. But then there is some order in the chaos.

I was so keen to learn pottery that I went to a potter in pottery town close to my house and asked him if he would teach me. He was so surprised coz I was using some kind of sign language to explain to him as i couldn't speak Kannada.He was an amazing teacher and of course an amazing potter.I think I made more than 100 vases, pen stands bowls etc. At one point my whole room was full of it. 

 These are just some of the pics of the stuff that i have made. I realized I must take more pics of the things I make . I have gifted lots of my pieces to some of my friends.These were made in the art room in school when I was pregnant. I have been told that children get influenced by the things the mother did while they were pregnant. If there is any truth in it i hope my LO enjoys the messiness and beauty of clay. I am imagining the problems of it already . I will have to wash those clothes she messes :)

All I learnt from Rio

This book is dedicated to my dog Rio. I love dogs and I feel they teach us so much. More than anything they teach us unconditional love.

Chocolate cupcake

This is a story book I wrote and illustrated for my adorable niece.Its strange that when she was born she had poker straight hair and now its really curly . When she reads the book now she doesn't associate herself to the character I have illustrated.She is two and a half now and she sure does love cupcakes. Though she loves pink cupcakes more than chocolate cupcakes. Would love to make some cupcakes for her someday. 

Noah's Ark

This was my first collaborative work with my sister  Tusheeta David  and it was so much fun. She has illustrated this book while I have written the book. I love her illustration style.  This is a Bible story retold for children.

Halloween cupcakes

These were a set of Halloween cupcakes I made for this very sweet family who had 3 children 2 boys and a lil girl. It was Halloween time and their mother wasn't keeping too well . So I was hoping this would cheer them up a bit. These were chocolate cupcakes with marshmallow fondant and semi sweet chocolate morsels for the eye and I used twizzlers for the mouth and the veins on the eye.

Christmas cupcakes

I was wondering if I should put this pic up or not. Cupcakes I  was so proud of once upon a time and I now find it so kiddish. Am sure loads of kids can do a better job. But then this pic is to inspire many novices that this is how my first cupcake decoration looked.These were cupcakes which as you must have guessed were made as christmas gifts for our family and friends. Chocoalate cupcake with butter frosting and homemade marzipan toppings. Had so much fun making it as it was a combined effort between my husband and me.He did the frosting while I assembled the topping. We wrapped it in cellophane paper and it sure did look like a very personal gift which was truly appreciated. This picture is to inspire all the other wanna be bakers who are scared to venture in this direction. Baking and decorating is fun and addictive. Just dive in. This is where my journey began.

Birthday cake for a dear cousin

I made this handbag birthday cake for a very dear cousin. it has a monogram with the initial of her name. I think she is such a beauty inside and out. This is a chocolate cake with home made marshamallow fondant.It has a tinge of butter frosting on the side. I think she loved it :)
