Sharing a little haul of a few cute things that we'd received in the mail before the Lockdown!
These totes and pouches are from an indie Kolkata-based brand called 'The Yellow Curtain. We placed our order through their Instagram account, but they also have a website.
These cute kettles are on a tote bag. We love tote bags because they are so handy in carrying extra items when you are carrying a small sling bag or satchel and also very useful for grocery and other shopping.
The second tote bag is adorned with this pakha (Bengali) or palm leaf fan print. These pakhas or pankhas (Hindi) take me back to hot Calcutta summers when loadsheddings (power cuts) were a part and parcel of our daily lives! *shudder*
I am sure you would've seen Calcutta's iconic Taana Rickshaws/ manually pulled Rickshaws? If not, this is pretty much what it looks like! Instead of a cycle mechanism pulling it along, a man pulls it along. There are very few of these left in Calcutta now, but they are an iconic image of the city's past.
Then we bought a pouch! You, seriously, can't have enough pouches! Seriously!! Look how pretty this lotus-print one is!
So, that was the whole little haul!
Hope you guys have a great week ahead!
Stay safe, fam!
