DIY Diwali Gift Hamper

The festival of gifting and making everyone feel special. In my last post I have covered the different gifting ideas for Diwali.
In this post I will be talking about how I create my own DIY Diwali gift hamper for my loved ones which will be completely personalised and not at all off the rack and common.
The gift hamper is super easy to make and on budget.
 So the table is set.
I am filling the boxes with home made besan ladoos packed pretty in pink. You can find the link to the post for recipe of Besan ladoos.
Some home made chocolates.
Some tea light holders.
Some ready made Rangoli craft.


















The Gift boxes are ready with a hand written note to accompany them. You can also pack them in a basket or cellophane paper or any other way.
Let your creativity flow.
You can check out the whole Gift hamper video on my you tube channel below.


Happy Diwali you all !!

Lots of Love ..
Spread the cheer

Dastkari haat samiti craft bazaar

Craft connoisseurs of the city rejoice as Pune welcomes the Dastakari Haat at the Monalisa Kalagram, end of south main road of Koregaon park from the 27th Nov - 6th Dec - 11am to 8pm.
The bazaar is a feast for the eyes for the art lovers. Local artisans from all over India are showcasing their products, sold directly by the makers. 
We were drawn in the whole vibe from the entrance itself. The colourful stalls lined with beautiful articrafts, souvenirs, textiles and much more. The range of products is myriad and includes, mojarris, silver jewellery, ethnic textiles, lamps, bags, furniture, gardening showpieces, urns, pots, stoles, shawls, sarees and lot more to chose from. 
There was beautiful live rustic music as well as folk dance performance to enthrall you while you shop to your hearts content. 
And if the hunger pangs hit while shopping worry not, there are some munchies to have from their food section. 
Have a look --



















Must visit for all the art lovers. A wonderful way to spend the afternoon or blissful evening.
