    Hi brinda,

    after sticking u can put a stitch in the hole that is given.

    This is a kundan work done by a designer in my salwar.

    Hi Nithya,

    I have done a crepe saree with chamki & kundan(sandalwood colour saree).

    but in the snap it is coming very light in colour.

    some adjustment has to be done in my camera I think.......
