I have this *ahem* obsession with India. I think anyone can see that if they just take a stroll over to my personal journal. One of things that especially draws me to the culture are the traditional clothes. Gorgeous sarees, silks, beading, lavish embrodiery and bright colors. Even their wedding dresses are colorful. So much more fun then ( Read more... )

a good friend of mine who is indian-american tweaked the style for her own wedding...she wore a red dress, but in an american formal style!

Ooh it sounds lovely! I'd like to do that but I'm as white-american girl as you can get so it might be weird....or people would assume things about me. That's the big problem with American wedding traditions. Any color other than white and people think you're a slut! ;)

Those are gorgeous! I've always loved the bright colors and designs that are used in India. Taking #3 and will credit!

I do too. I think we all need more bright colors. :) Enjoy and thank you so much for the credit! It's much appreciated!

Wow! How flattering!! :)

I had most of them made and then my computer died. Luckily I had already uploaded them but it took awhile to get the rest done. I'm glad I finally did, especially if you were waiting for them. ♥

Eeeeeeeee!

After mastering Arabic, I'm taking Hindi. I'm just in love with Indian culture. We have a family member from there and we sponsor a priest in the region so I've always wanted to go.

Anyway, long story short...lovely work. I'd kill for some more Indian inspired icons if the inspiration hits! The foot one you made a while back with the red henna is one of my favorites.

That's really awesome! I'm currently studying German but I've always wanted to learn Hindi. I have a book but it's difficult to get into studying it with no structure. I'm so glad you like them and I will always make more Indian inspired icons. They're definately my favorite! :)
