Vibrant corner decor created with clay artifacts - DIY

You must have seen those roadside sellers, selling clay pots in various sizes and shapes along with regular plant pots. I am always fascinated by these and wanted to incorporate them in my home.




So I created this corner with a horse shaped clay pot, a boat shaped clay pot , a few artificial flowers, some indoor plants and old show piece. 




You can go with your imagination when creating a corner decor with clay pots. 
Just opt for fresh colors, different shapes and add few more natural elements like plants and you will have a eye catching point in your home!!

Day trip from Bangalore to Avani

Avani is small village in Kolar district around 95 kms from Bangalore. We did day trip from Bangalore to Kotilingeshwara and from there to Avani twice and each time I fell in love with this place. Avani has Ramlingeshwara temple complex which is of archaeological and mythological importance. As per mythology this place is birth place of Luv-Kush.
