Whenever we drive out of Bangalore during our many weekend getaways, we make a quick stop at Channapatna, a small town famous for it's wooden toys & lacquerware. Every time we manage to find something interesting:-)

During our trip to Masinagudi few weeks back, we did out customary stop at Channapatna, my eyes fell on these button-like boxes with Indian Kitsch painting. It was instant love.
Such a familiar scenery that one gets to see painted on trucks and on auto-rickshaws in India.

I am amazed at the lovely art and crafts in India.
If you are driving out of Bangalore sometime, do stop by at Channapatna, you won't be disappointed:-)
Have a great festive weekend everyone!
