Paper birds 26-03-14

Yesterday i tried making birds. For the first one paper was insufficient, so i was not able to make the face properly. The second bird is better. But since i was trying out first time, it took lot of time and so today my back is hurting like anything!

First bird made from old wedding cards.

My plants after 10 days

I had hoped that my plants would start growing so well that i’ll upload the photos again today. But unfortunately most of my seeri kheri had died and my radish plants have bent so much that they are touching the mud and my palak also has not grown well. May be it happened because i kept my pots inside the house. I wanted to protect my plants from pegions.

So i am a bit disappointed. I again sowed seeds of seerikherai and this time i kept my pots in sun. Let me see how it comes up.

I also sowed seeds of mirchi and tomato on 19th march. Plants just started to show up.

My last weeks work

4 days after sowing

I sowed the seed on 13th and already small small plants have come.

Radish

I actually planted only 12 seeds. Rest plants would have come from the seeds present in the home made compost.

Washi paper dolls

Washi paper dolls are Japanese paper dolls . They can be used for making bookmarks, cards, decorations etc.

These dolls are made with “washi” (Japanese paper). The coat is called the kimono and the belt is called obi. For the head and neck,  use cardboard, a little bit thicker than usual, and for the hair, black crepe paper.

I have made a few washi dolls bookmarks.
