Hello Friends
I am back with the promised tutorial. This post is also off to the Artsy Craftsy Challenge - Folk Craft in Shruti's blog, Mindful Meanderings. I am also linking it to Weekend Wrap Up 36 at Colours Dekor
We, Lil A (my lil assistant) & I, had a really good time making this. She was all ready for help...in fact she wanted to do it completely on her own:)
What I have done here is decor magnet for kids based on the artform, Madhubani . It is a folk art practised in the Mithila region of Bihar in India.
That's not all...you can choose your own patterns, make some and even gift it to your family and friends.

Check out Shruti's blog for more of the Artsy Craftsy Challenge:
Madhubani painting comes from the Indian villages of Madhubani and Mithila in
Bihar. Madhubani literally means ‘Forest of Honey’. There are
paintings for each occasion and festival such as birth, marriage, holi, surya
shasti, kali puja, Upanayanam (sacred thread ceremony), and durga puja. These paintings are done on various
mediums such as cloth, handmade paper and canvas. The main themes of Madhubani
paintings contain images of Hindu deities such as Radha, Krishna, Ram, Shiva,
Durga, Lakshmi and Saraswati. Also you will be able to find beautiful Madhubani
paintings of sun, moon and tulsi or the sacred basil plant revered very much by
the Hindus. The themes of daily activities, nature, flora and fauna and Hindu Gods
are the most prominent. They are characterized by the vibrant and bold use of colours
and traditional geometric patterns that supports the main theme. Madhubani painting has been done
traditionally by the women of villages.
