    Here I post Sand Mural of my favourite Ganeshji made by me...

    I adore Ganeshji as he is the said to be the "First God" and remover of Obstacles.

    He has saved,helped and guided me till today.I had never forgotten him and he also never forgets me.And i strongly fell that he is with me in all walks of my life as a good friend. So it's amazing to adore such a lovely friend...isn't?

    You can use wedding card as base/scrap,but not the Ganesha photo/ Ganesha design cutout from the card to work on.
    In case of craft,the only criteria is you have to draw your own freehand outline and work on it or bring out the shape by your own using any material.
    All the best.:thumbsup

    Still have any doubt please feel free to ask.
    Thanks.

    Ganeshji has always been my favourite. He has helped me to solve my problems. I prayed to him that I should get a son after my elder daughter was born and he gave me a son, whom we named as Vinayaka but call him Vinay. I was fortunate to work near his temple as our office was just 5,10 minutes near the temple. Earlier I used to visit only on Tuesdays as I used to travel by train. But after my hip bone fracture in 1991 I got the opportunity to visit Him everyday as I used to reach early by contract bus. From 1991 to 2002 Jan when I took vrs I had the opportunity to visit Him daily and take his blessings.

    Jaya Ganesha Jaya Ganesha Pahi mam , Jaya Ganesha Jaya Ganesha Raksha maam

    Let Ganeshji bless everyone and fulfill everyone's wishes especiall those who are longing for a child

    Sarvo Jano sukino bhavanthu

    p.s. I know it has not comeso perfect but I tried my best. I cant sit for a long time thats why it is not perfect
