Deepavali Rice Painting



Deepavali is coming next week. This rice painting is available at MidValley Shopping Mall, Kuala Lumpur as part of the festive decorations.

Deepavali is an Hindus festival celebrated by Indian across the world. This festival synonym with lots of brights and cheerful colours. We will expecting most shopping malls, roads and public places decorated with lamps, colours and other interesting decorations.

I used to enter a competition to do rice painting at university long time ago. My friends and I were the only Malays contestants while the others are Indians. Due to that reason, we gather a lot of supporters and attract the crowds. Unfortunately we loss because we don't have skills and right method in doing the painting. I would say it was a good experiences doing something new and understand about other people culture.

:P

Beads again!

For my new baju kurung, I sew a round beads as first image above. Unfortunately I choose beads that has same colours with my baju kurung. So it does not distinctive and outstanding. I do feel a waste of time doing the beads.

Then, I remove the beads and re-sew with gems beads. Well it's distinctive but kind of awkward because it's stand alone beads. Again I feel a waste of time doing this. Of course I can stop without finishing it right :)

The funnier thing is that, I don't have enough gems beads. So my baju kurung hands has gems beads whilst at the body has round beads. But I just wear the baju kurung like nothing happened. Will re-sew the body part as soon as possible when I top-up the the gems bead. Bling bling :D

I don't know how to sew a beads for full-patterned fabric. So, just one bead each at the center of the flower.

Need to improve the skills now!
