100 Happy Days: Day 97 Indian Dolls

Happiness is being immersed in creativity

I was passing through a handicraft store,when this couple caught my attention and took me back to pre-social-media days when all my free time was spent in various handicraft activities including making dolls. Having a creative hobby can liberate us from so many things. I have not made dolls for sometime now, but till today, I have made more than 100 dolls of different culture and costumes. Whenever I make, I am so immersed in the activity that outer world ceases to exist. Right from designing the clothes and jewelry, to getting the expressions closer to reality, the mind is completely occupied around the activity.

Looking at the finished product, there is a sense of achievement. It feels good to stare at your creation of making something from odds and ends. The dolls have life, they talk to you, and they begin to have an identity you can relate to.

Maybe i should make one more soon.

100 Happy Days: Day 33 Design on my Mobile Cover.

Happiness is splashing your creativity on your mobile covers.

There are hundreds of mobile covers in the market. Different covers for different models. They all sell because we get tired of same design in our hands.

I was tired of seeing one white color on my mobile cover for too long and wanted change. Went to different kiosks looking for one particular color. I wanted light purple. There were blues, greens, blacks and white but no purple. The salesman told me to wait for few weeks.

So while I waited for the right color to arrive, I dabbled on my acrylic paints. Painted strips of three different colors horizontally and finally coated with black mesh. It looks different, its unique. I am sure nobody else will have this design except me.

 It looks branded now. I am happy with the result

100 Happy Days: Day 8 Nacho Delight

Happiness means sharing recipes

S loves to make exotic snacks. The normal cooking may not interest her (that is left to an ordinary cook to prepare it) but when it comes to creativity, S can put her sleeve up and work out her masterpiece.

Like an artists, she carefully places nacho chips in a decorative plate. Covers the chips with Dorito salsa, puts the blob of baked kidney beans then squeezes out the Mexican cheese. With spoonful of olives and jalapenos to add to its taste, she finishes it with sour cream.

“It’s my self created recipe” she beams proudly at her creation, happy at last.
