Hi Friends.we all know rakhi (raksha bandhan) is coming ,and this time I am not going to purchase a single Rakhi from market .I will make them.I know I have to make many, as  at my mumma's home, we live in joint family .According to custom at my mom's house ,we not only tie Rakhi to our brother ,but to all gents in family.My daughter will also do the same ,so can you guess how many Rakhi's ,I have to make..................50+some extra,but not to worry now I have shredder,I started making Rakhi's. I saw challenge HERE........Plz click to see challenge.I made one rakhi for challenge also.I will make more in same manner.All rakhi's i will make by quilling.Here are pic.

 Closer look.I added glitter diecut, some stone to decorate
  
                                            This is vintage look Rakhi
