Chandika's Bisoni

THESE ARE THE BISONIS(HAND MADE FANS) CHANDIKA ..MY DOMESTIC HELP AT HOME GIFTED ME......THE BLUE ONE IS FOR ME AND THE OTHER TWO ARE FOR TWO FRIENDS ...ONE PRIYANKA AND THE ONE WITH N IS FOR NITU.....i am not so happy today as just few minutes back i cancelled my air tickets to DELHI....this Sunday we were supposed to fly to Delhi to meet my mom,brother and his family,my sister's family and many other relatives......but yesterday i was informed that my brother caught very severe CHICKEN-POX .....need i say more.I was unpacking my things........these bisonis were packed too .
Chandika hails from our village and whenever she is free from work she gets herself engaged in making these beauties.....she uses very thinly trimmed bamboo sticks,old wool,threads,old clothings in making these.She loves to watch T.V. but we have very strict rules for everyone regarding watching too much of t.v..........the result,she is busy with better things to do.
Meet Chandika(seema)......for her very first bisoni she used wool from her dad's new muffler.......

  2. Lovely, Kavita!

    By the way, how do you pronounce your name? Is it KA-vi-ta or ka-VI-ta? Is the accent on the 1st syllable or on the 2nd syllable?

  7. Kavitaji, I wish your brother good health and hope that you get to meet the family pretty soon.

    Well, as usual, this blog momentum is maintained with - beautiful photos and interesting description.

    So is this the secret behind cutting the TV - to get beautiful handmade "bisonis" as gifts, right? ha ha...

    But I do agree, you said it right, TV just eats away our time and better to stay strict and do something useful.

    Cheers,
    Sai

  15. what fun handicrafts...chicken pox- I got it when I was 8 months pregnant with my 2nd son when I caught it from my first son. Not fun so it's good you have avoided catching it....or worse yet your children getting it.
