Giving away

Among the many things that happened last year was  my participation in a blog give away for the very first time :) The gorgeous Vineeta Nair of Art n light was giving a Mora by Ritika Mittal stole away.   ... Wait ?! was it a Mora?! I would have killed for this one, but thankfully  no such desperation was required.  All we needed to do was to drop a note about tradition and what it meant to us. Easy peasy. I did my bit and waited patiently. And  in due course a  beautifully finished stole came to me in a cloth package bearing the signature red dot !!!

I am yet to thank  Vineeta and Ritika for their generosity formally. So I start the new year with this little note of thanks.

Taking the right cues from the two ladies I admire so much, the very first post of 2014 on Girl about home  is going to be a very first give away!

To all my  lovely readers  who coming back to the blog time and again.   For  all those I have connected with through this site. For keeping up with my moody, erratic and half hearted posts sometimes - here is a sincere word of thanks too. Do keep reading the blog as well as my recently launched Facebook page. I promise to keep sharing on both these spaces out through out 2015.

The rules of the give away are simple .
For a 9 by 13 inch card mounted print on archival grade paper :

Temporary home at  Kumbh Mela Allahabad,  Maha Kumbh 2013.

  1. Home is warmth, comfort, pleasure, joy, togetherness and love all rolled into a tight ball. One that shows it's happiness by bouncing about the rooms filling it with laughter and soul. :-)

  2. Home is "you", home is "me". Home is where "one" is one's own very self. Maskless !

  3. The colors of the print are incredible. Looks like a lot of fabric hung to dry.. or is it ?
    My home to me is my sanctuary from the rest of the world. The one place I am unafraid and free to be 'me'!
    Truly admire your work. All the best ! : )

  4. HI Chandan!

    A happy new year to you too! A wonderful imge and a beautiful way to start the year with saying thanks !

    I do not have a facebook account, but would love to be part of this giveaway!

    TO me a home is not just fourwalls and things that occupy confines. It is the love and company and warmth that abides the space. It is this love that makes our effort with the space worth the effort to beautify and decorate it !

  5. Just discovered your blog. Keep up the great work! I find it very inspiring.
    My home is a visual of what I feel on the inside.I love it sometimes, I hate it sometimes, I ignore it sometimes and I am extra attentive to it sometimes. Home is home always the same- it is me who changes it around to reflect who I am at that particular point in time.

  6. Thanks all ! Many congratulations to Liza for taking this away ! The 'love it so much and hate it sometimes' ambivalence does resonate withme so deeply!
