Mason Jar Candle Holder - DIY

Simple DIY candle holder that can add dramatic shades to your hall.
You need a empty glass jar, some glue(fevicol), some glitter and satin ribbon.




I have used an empty jam jar as it is easy to peel of its label. 
Draw any shapes of your choice on the outer surface of jar using a sketch pen. Apply glue on the inside of the drawn outline of shapes and sprinkle the glitter over it. Gently shake excess glitter and let the jar dry. Decorate with satin ribbon and add a candle of your choice inside the jar.



With the glitter it gets quite messy around, so make sure you use some old newspapers as your base work area.

Joys of first harvest and 5 little friends!! - week 5 updates

     L ast week could not visit the farm, and was seeing updates from fellow Farmizen'ian about the first harvests and had already scheduled our farm visit for this week. As we approached the farm, I felt butterflies in my stomach! All the plots are growing really good and it was a bliss seeing around the fresh shades of green after recent rains. Our methi has grown really well and though not in it's full growth we could harvest some and I must say it was the most satisfying moment.

How we became community farmers!

     For past some days we were in search of ways to support our sustainable leaving goals and actively researching on community farming options here in Bangalore.        At home after most of my balcony garden plants and specially veggies became rodent and pigeon food, I still had not lost my hopes and still wanted to go ahead and grow our own fresh food.           That is when we landed with this platform called Farmizen! Though we did not find many reviews of Farmizen around, their social handles were showing good progress and so we thought of giving it a try. So two weeks back we registered on to Farmizen as community farmers with many like minded farmers. They have multiple plots per farm and the app gives you a lot of flexibility in choosing what you want to grow. On the other days the farmer takes care of your farm and you can plan visits and work around your farm on weekends. You also can see growth and harvest and other activities at your farm through the app.
