I had done a post on our dear elephant god last year as well. This year, its going to be a little different. The go green bug had to bite me sooner or later. Although I am still a little sad that my Ganesha's wont be as colorful- still happy that we are not contributing to more wastes than there already is. Some friend's of mine put together a little soiree to make you're own. Must say- its was a pretty fun evening.

Here's what you need

1. clay
2. water
3. news paper

Method

1. make the following divisions in clay
2. put them together
3. let it dry overnight


and ....CELEBRATE.

Blogs help people meet people- true story. This has happened to me several times over the last few months now and its a fantastic way to connect. They/people like the same things as me and some are so good with what they do- it's truly inspiring. 
So Akila Chungi walked into my blogger life one day and showed me around her work. One word- Amazing! Akila specializes in ceramics that are a visual treat and joy to use. I have seen each one of her products in detail and even bought a few - fell in love instantly.

"Influenced by the issues arising within myself and around me, my works in clay are quite a symbolic representation of the thoughts I desire to address. My work also converse of a vernal metamorphic mind that has devoted itself to a freshly discovered passion, with each creation bearing either a speck of a thought or a whole deluge of perception"- Akila Chungi
