Bomma Golu ( Display of dolls), is an important aspect of Navratri Celebrations.
Past 20 yrs I am keeping Golu at home and every time I try to make small small crafts and make them look colorful and creative.
This year 2022 golu is very very unique and special, as the Golu features all quilling dolls, 252, in number and made by me, over a period of two years.
The dolls show different daily chores of a normal human being. That way I have created a mixed theme.
1. Full layout of Enga Veetu Golu .
2. Ganesh Chathurthi
Ganesh chaturthi is portrayed here, as it is celebrated in Maharashtra. All dolls, including Lord Ganesha, are paper quilling.
DHOL-TASHA, which features youngsters, is displayed through quilling dolls.
3. Siva ,Parvati n Nandi ( in quilling)
4. Goddess Varalakshmi, theme all in quilling is presented here.
