Angie, this time I am coming to your Fiesta Friday with some Indian Handicrafts to share.
I am bringing a Leftover Dish to chew on but that’s it about the food this time….no recipes! I hope the guests would like it and I will get to see more arts and enjoy some yummy food and get some wine or champagne opened to relax down this Friday night.
Here are my “Leftover Flatbreads to share. They are made with leftover curried cauliflower and potato stir fry along with some curried lentils, kneaded with whole wheat flour and shallow fried in the pan. Enjoy these with the Dry Fruits Chutney that I prepared yesterday. Okay Food done!
Now on to my Display. Hey, do you have a table that I can borrow to display my Indian handicrafts.? Umm, sorry I forgot to bring mine. Actually it was too big to fit in my iPad. Are you laughing? No…seriously! For next time, I will buy a virtual small folding table for my displays and bring that. Just bear with me this time.
May I make a request everybody? Please feel free to touch and feel everything but just don’t drop..few things are fragile :). A humble request!
1. Hand Embroidered, Patch work, Colorful Cushion covers
2. A Hand Painted, Woden Tissue Box
3. Carved Metal Pot and Gold Painted
4. A Beautiful Carved Marble Box
5. A Collection of Hand Painted Miniature Folk Music Men
6. My Marble Mortar and Pestel
7. Silver Patterned Key Ring
8. Silver Boxes
9. A Carved and Hand Painted Mini Box
10. An arranged Indian Backdrop in one corner of my home

Everything you have shown is beautiful, especially the three pillows. What materials are used to make them? I see gold thread, silk and… I have tinkered with embroidery and a little bit of knitting but that is all.

It is mostly cotton backing with left over saree material used in patch work. This is a typical artwork from the wet seen state of Gujarat in India. There are villages and villages who are involved in it. They use silk, metal threads, cotton threads, jewels etc are used!
