Hi All,
Am quiet new to blogging, actually never thought I'll even create one. But change is the only constant right?? Ok, straight to the point, I am Parvathy and this is my story about how I ended up loving to create crafts. When I was 13(quite long time age ;) ) my mom and bro took off to Kerala coz my bro was acting in a movie, yes my lil bro acted in a movie and now hes a doc. But that's his story. Heres mine..anywayz, I was left to entertain myself in my Aunt's house for that summer holidays. My Aunt has only a son, so imagine her enthusiasm to pass on her creativity to her bro-in-laws daughter the entire summer...
We had a great time actually. She dressed me up in various hairstyles, we made cake in a cooker with icing and she taught me how to crochet, knit and the basics of stitching. I would really like to thank her for that coz now as a mother of two growing children with little time, its keeping me busy and helping me spend enough time with my kids too.
To continue my story, I got busy with 10th, 12th and college and marriage, work ( that I quit after children) and family. One day both my kids started school and I realized I have quite some time before they return. I considered taking up part-time jobs, teaching and realized that the minute you start working for someone, you cannot control time. AND ONE DAY I literally pricked my hand on one of the crochet hooks and found my old supplies. DING, I got an idea. Started re-discovering my crochet skills. Found that I have not forgotten any of the stitches. Discovered the joy of creating new stuff, the joy of seeing a good finished product that people were willing to buy(huge encouragement that) more than all this the happiness on my daughters face when I make a clip or a bag for her. That's when I decided to do what I love most, creating things with love for people to gift to their loved ones. And that's how it all started... posting some pics of my work..
