I was in Delhi for the Dastkari Craft Bazaar at Dilli Haat earlier this month and picked up some beautiful gifts. If you're in Delhi, I highly recommend a visit to Dilli Haat where hundreds of craftspeople from all over the country have set up stalls selling their state's craft specialities. It's a great day out for children and adults alike. Along with the craft stalls are demonstrations and workshops for all, as well as food stalls from every state.
Here is a round up of some of the things I saw.
Hand painted fans from Andhra Pradesh
A very sweet game of Ludo
Beaded flowers
Basket making workshops by African artists
Felted woollen fabrics, made in Kashmir
Everyone loves a bit of Candy floss!
Colourful baskets from Andhra Pradesh
Weaving demonstration
I particularly loved these hand painted papier-mâché birds from Orissa.
