Pomo Basketry,house renovation in 2001







Basketry



During our house renovation, we spent a great deal of time at  Raj  in Hisar, which carries salvage and reproduction hardware, house parts, lighting, furniture and all sorts of specialty items. Back then they also carried plumbing, although this has recently been discontinued. 

They were a great resource for us, starting with our first Commode tub which we purchased just a few days after we got the new toilet in  the house. That first commode - an enthusiastic and charismatic, but misguided first purchase! It spent nearly six months being shuffled around various locations of the house in order to be out of the way while we completed the main floor renovation around it. We followed that purchase with many more. Next up were the stainless steel kitchen sink, wash basin, and the rest of the plumbing fixtures.  We also purchased all of our window, door and cabinet hardware from them, as well as our porch light fixtures and most of our indoor fixtures as well. 

We stopped by the store again recently – for tiles, some plumbing fixtures.

Merasi Folk Music


Traditional Merasi Folk Music offers a rich and enchanting experience. Each sound touches the
hearts because it is alive with the warmth of the artists’ souls and the history of 37 generations.
Coupled with the marginalization of illiteracy, poverty, and the relentless injustices of caste
hierarchy the path ahead is clear.
ONE DAY! Members of the Merasi (musician)community will have the freedom to define the scope of
their lives, their futures, and be able to strive to achieve their full potential.

XOXO


artificial blooms .

Early this morning I went out to get a picture of the china roses in my yard, which are the only things in bloom outside. As you can see that there are leave, leaves and leaves of green and maroon.
 
 
My d-in-law posing for snap with blooms on the tree.

The jatropa spice   dropped the rest of its blooms, so sadly there are none of those to share. I planted the roses  just a few days ago, so hopefully those will be in bloom for coming 4-5 months.
 
 

 
Also I made some fabric rosette fallowing the above video.
