This vacation I visited my native place malwan
situated in the konkan coastal region of Maharashtra. It has such amazing
monumental scenery, sensuous forests and pleasing beach fronts.
It makes you feel nostalgic when you revisit a place
where you spent your childhood. Life has changed in terms of civilization in
malwan. You rarely get to see those terracotta roof tops and coconut trees
leaves used as fences around the houses.
But you still can enjoy a seamless sync with nature.
As I travelled to different parts of malwan I also came across some weekly bazaars
in the area. In one such bazaar I and my
mom purchased some locally used earthen ware pots.
These pots are used to store curd, spices etc also I do remember the fish curry and rice my granny used to cook in earthen ware pots. I chose the pots solely for its looks.
Thus I decorate an earthen ware pot which can be used for storage in our kitchen.
Material required:
Earthen pot, acrylic colors, 3d liner, varnish.
1) First wash the pot and allow it to dry before use.
2) I have used yellow
acrylic color to a bright texture to the pot.
Give at least 2-3 coats of color. Allow the first
coat to dry and then apply the next coat.
3) I got the head painted with red color; you
could use your choice of color to paint the pot.
After the paint dried I used a 3d liner to
create a pattern of lines on the pot.
5) This is how the pot looks after the pattern
was completed.
6) To make it more attractive I used a 3d glitter
liner around the rim of the pot and the lid.
Always use two contrast colors as they complement
each other. I have painted the rim of the pot blue as it enhances the look.
8) To give a shine on the surface paint a coat of
varnish on the surface.I use this pot to store my whole spices and also it add to the decor of my kitchen.
