Work In Progress – Saree design with old saree border

This week I have taken up another saree for designing. This saree I am designing with old saree border. I like the saree border so much that , I don’t want to discard it. Here it is :

Renewing a saree

You can see it has a beautiful weaving of Krishna and Yashodha on border. I will use this old saree border and design another saree. I have chosen contrast fabric in Uppada silk to redesign the saree.

I have need some gifts for various occasions. Decoupage home decors are the best ones to gift somebody. I have some wooden boxes and key holder. I will be decoupaging these.

I have completed attaching Banaras borders to a saree, which I has shared in previous WIPs. You can have a look of that.
