तीज is a fasting festival for married Hindu women.
Dedicated to the Goddess Parvati, commemorating her union with Lord Shiva, the festival is celebrated for marital bliss, well-being of spouse and children and purification of own body and soul.
The festival is a three-day-long celebration that combines sumptuous feasts as well as rigid fasting. A day before this festival is celebrated as Sinjara wherein girls/ladies put on mehandi on their hands.

Nambi polymer clay bangle. I am keeping this one to myself.
Nambi technique step by step tutorial is available in my Etsy shop.
This bangle, inspired by Eni Oken’s tutorial (www.enioken.com) has the colour of spring fresh grass: beautiful and big faceted jasper beads, green turquoise rondelles, Shiny copper beads with oxidized ridges, tiny copper round beads and hammered copper clasp. It is 20 cm long.
This is a GAP shopping bag....and here is its story:
I was trashing this bag when I saw the bottom of it saying:
"MADE IN US.
This bag contains 15% recycled material.
Please reuse this bag"
So couldn't help I had to follow their suggetion: I reused the bag!
What caught my attention was two different culture women sharing same passion. Bangle seller is Muslim Lady and other one is a Rajasthani Lady.
This is a sterling silver wire wrapped bangle incorporating a lovely aquamarine stone. The delicately coloured aquamarine sits in a silver cage surrounded by spirals which also run alond the edges of the bangle. This bangle used several feet of sterling silver wire and fastens with a simple hook clasp.
Another project inspired by Rachel Nelson Smith’s work. I saw a picture of her See Star Bangle on her site last spring and was fell in love with it! I devised my own way of constructing it and choose colors bright corally colors mixed with a matte beige – cream color that brings out the shine in the coral colored beads. Copper colored seed beads at the tips of the spikes give a nice closure to the piece.
It is made of hundreds of tiny glass seed beads and countless hours of endless stitching but who cares; it was great fun! I am sure you will enjoy wearing it as much as I enjoyed creating it!

Floral bangles make me feel like cha-cha-cha Carmen Miranda, 1940s dancer. I never wear bracelets on my right arm, but there were too many for one hand – every move announced with clashing cymbals. This gold chain lasso could be necklace or belt – here I wrapped it around waist… Fashionshesays.com
