Art on a Bottle

So, getting back to the basics.....

This was a beer bottle, that I painted gold......

Then, I did some One- stroke painting on it.....

You can see some in my earlier post One Stroke Painting on Totes....

I also embellished the design a bit, with 3D Outliners (puffy paint)......

Here are some photos for you, to show the details.....

This not just recycling....
For me, its a process where something beautiful is born out of junk.....
Sorta like the Ugly Duckling ;)
Hope you enjoyed it....
Thanks for visiting and keep coming for more......

DIY No Sew Contemporary Lampshades

Hello and Welcome once again!!!!

I would be sharing with you, how I made this No-sew Ribbon Lampshade
with a contemporary dual look......

This was a quick makeover for my dreary old plain lamps.....

Contemporary Lampshade

This is how my lamp originally looked.......

I have two of these, one on either side of the bed......

It really looked nice on my bedside tables, but after using it for more 

than a year, I got bored of its plain look.....

I decided to revamp the look of our bedroom.......

And, decided to begin with the Lampshades :)

Plain Lamp Base

I decided to make a Contemporary Dual Look Lamp.......

The main reason for this decision was that, I have two comforters, 

one black and white, and the other a dark red......

I wanted the look of the lampshades to go with both my beddings......

I used Black Satin ribbons and hot glued them to the lamp in the following 

Criss-cross pattern on two opposite sides of the lamp.........

On the remaining two opposite sides, I just glued them vertically........

The only important tip here is to space the ribbons perfectly.....

A little bit here or there can have distortions in the design.....

It helps to mark the spacings before you start gluing the ribbons.....

Then, I glued Red Satin Ribbons vertically between the vertical Black Ribbons......

This is how the finished Lampshades look.......

 And here is the other side.......

This is how the Lamp looks lighted up.......

This is the matching look for my Red comforter :)

And, this is the look for my Black and White comforter.... minus the comforter ;)

Honestly, I got lazy....and didn't change the comforter for the photo :)

These Contemporary Lamps sure do brighten up my bedroom......

I really love the way they turned out........

It was one of the most satisfying DIY project ever!!!!

Hope you liked them too......

Krishna- Bejeweled Artwork

Hello.....

Here, I have a Bejeweled Art done on Krishna....the most loved Indian god....

This type of art is also known as "Shringar Art" in India.....

"Shringar" literally means "Make- up and Jewelry Adornment".

I have used a 16 x 20 Poster print of Krishna and used mixed media for this artwork....

I have individually stuck each and every bead and rhinestone with my own hands....

The "Murli" or the "Flute" is hand- moulded too......

The peacock feather on the crown is real too.....

This is completely a 3D artwork....

This is how, the Framed Artwork looks......

This is the close-up of the crown for you.....

Shringar Artwork- Krishna

It took me a month (3 hrs/day) to finish this artwork......

It was a painstaking job, but the hard work did finally pay.....

The final result blew my brains away.....

It was beyond my own expectations.......

I was making this artwork for my sister's house-warming.....

She loved it so much that it is now, the Focal Wall art in 

her Living room feature wall.....
