Dear all,

This is the eco friendly Ganeshji I made out of pure turmeric powder and water.

The eyes were black pepper, the decorative jems were cereals.

The detailing was done with a screw driver.

Lots of fishes die every year in bombay when the metalic painted Ganesh idols made of plaster of paris were immersed after the function.

I wanted to create a new trend. This is the second year we made him out of turmeric powder. Every year he is created the way we visualise him to be.

We had a peaceful prayer and the kids showered the flowers on him and we had a great feast after the worship.

On the next day the visarjan ceremony happened in one bucket of water and Mr.Ganeshji and his vehicle dissolved peacefully and were poured into our house plants.

My hands were yellow for two days that's the other part of the story.

There was a feeling of completion after this event.
