First day to school

Monday my husband and I took my son to his First day of school. He was bursting in tears; I wanted to celebrate the day with little photo session and treat him with ice cream after school.  I'm a person like to treasure memories and never wanted to forget little things that I hold close to my heart. I did some photo session when he went to kindergarten/playschool.  It's amazing to see how kids grow and change; so you can look back and bring smile.

As soon as when we walked into the school block; he saw his playschool buddy.  He was very happy. We did little photo session after first day of school. 

Today was his third day to school; he is back to the school routine - early to bed and rise early.

Sling Bag / Cross body Bag

It's Friday - why does the time fly so fast?  This week is totally busy after coming from holiday. As promised I managed little time to post this sling/cross body bag on web/Etsy shop.  
I decided last minute I needed a small bag to carry few things during my travel to Munnar.  I made this bag and utterly love it; very convenient and handy for travel - carry iPad, phone, wallet, camera, map and lip balm.  So I made few more for my shop.

I always wonder how the bag looks without the top stitch - but I really like it without the top stitch. The little details with few pleats at the bottom and closure with key lobster/ swivel key added the beauty. Length adjustable strap is very comfortable for a walk trip .

Enough room to carry things - zipper pocket and divider for easy access. I will be putting the snap closure inside the bag as many people prefer the magnetic snap.  I have posted on Etsy.

Please visit my Etsy shop to buy one.

Mini Vacation to Munnar.

Hello friends,

I hope you had a wonderful weekend.  We had a mini vacation with family in Munnar.  The weather was amazing (cold and drizzling) I felt awesome away from super hot Chennai temperature.  We took the evening train till Aluva; more easy for kids to move around and then travelled by tavera to Munnar top hill. Kids were excited and serious window gazing. On the way we stop by waterfall - kids enjoyed.  By afternoon we reached Munnar we settled down in the cottage-  the chef was amazing cook - he made awesome food. We didn't miss home food.

Next day we had good time exploring the city.  I have over 450 photo on my camera and its hard to decide what to show. So here is few and hope to show more by during this week. Morning we walked round the park surround with beautiful flowers and then checkout waterfall,Dam and Echo point on our way. We took a break at beautiful lake - kids went for boating.  By evening we reached the cottage; hot dinner was ready to serve. I miss the vacation

 

This week I've lot of catching up to do with my Etsy shop - working on orders booked and get them shipped soon.  I have managed to finish a new sling bag you can see me carrying around in one of photos.  I will be posting it soon with more details on web shop.

 

I'm on Holiday!

I'm off till 4th June - a much needed break from work. I booked my holiday two months ago; I'm super excited and seriously cannot wait to leave this super hot weather for few days.   

While I'm away on my holiday, my shop (Etsy and Ebay) will remain open.  Any purchase made during this time will be shipped on 5th June.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Lovely Black and Red.

Hope everyone had wonderful weekend.  I love weekends a fun filled family time.  I was hoping for a nice time after a busy week, I promised my son for swimming and thinking to treat myself with little shopping for me and husband.  But none of that happened.  Unfortunate this weekend my husband away, son with flu and fever and the weather was too humidity.  Oh, what a disappointment.

I was at home; fortunately I had enough on my plate - taking care sick son, working on the orders and new pattern.  Before going to the bed I pleased myself by making this bag.  I love the combo Black+Red. I remember I had this fabric left over lying in my closet after a custom order.  I wanted a big bag to carry around to the post office/ shop; something I really what for very long time.  Finally here I treat myself. 
  

Two magnetic snap pocket in the front and lot of pockets inside.  Its great to keep the package, document (or your iPad /laptop/magazine )

After a long day (looking after my little son when my husband not around); I'm rather happy by end of the day.  Sometimes even the hard day can end smoothly.

Happy Weekend!
