DESIGN DIARIES | I am the highway

(Design by UnderTheIndianSky. Copyrighted!)


I am not your rolling wheels,
I am the highway
I am not your carpet ride,
I am the sky

Friends and liars don't wait for me,
'Cause I'll get on all by myself.
I put millions of miles under my heels;
And still too close to you, I feel, yeah.

('I am the highway' by Audioslave)

Its funny how things change at the drop of a hat and the days where you felt everything was wrong, are just a distant memory. Things are definitely looking up and I am humming to the tunes of a hundred songs!

Another close friend suggested I try my hand at this quote and being quite pleased with the result (if I say so myself), have decided to put it up for all you awesome people to see! Those hours spent in office scribbling away on scrap pieces of paper instead of finishing actual articles seem quite productive now don't you think? I'm trying my hand at many more such things and my next typography piece is something I am quite giddy about! I can't tell you though!

Maybe you could guess...roses, kittens and mittens. Anyone?

Till next time :D

MAKE IT | SPRAY PAINTED JAR CANDLES (part 02)

In a previous post , we made beautiful spray painted heart jars. Here is part two of the tutorial where I turn those same jars into decadent smelling candles. You need: Candle wax of your choice Candle wick Mason Jar (Follow the tutorial here ) Fragrance Oil  Before you begin, be sure you have the appropriate type and size of the wick. If your jar is wide, make sure wick is wide enough in diameter to burn optimally. And, if its narrow and long, make sure the length of the wick is sufficient enough.  Measure out the amount of wax needed. For this project, I melted the wax in a make-shift double boiler made from two metal containers—one small and one large. Fill water in the large container. Put the wax in the smaller container and place it in the larger one. Melt the wax on low to medium-low heat. Never leave melting wax unattended! While the wax is melting, secure your wick to the bottom of your mason jar. Dip the end in the melting wax and a...

THE MIXTAPE PROJECT / 01

I've been working on this series idea for a while now and finally it's here! The Mixtape Project, a series to document interesting people, their music choices and their personal quirk. Here is my first guest for today... MAYANK KUMAR / DELHI If you could pick one, which superhero would you be?  I don't really follow the superhero concept but if I had to, I guess i'd pick Batman. That's simply because of his sharp mind and his ability to solve humongous issues with just his mere intellect. What would your DJ name be?  Can't imagine myself behind a console wearing earphones bigger than my face. But I guess 'Max' would do? Or just M? What's your favourite joke?  A jealous haryanavi man opened his own momos shop right next to the famous 'Yo! China' and named it 'Yo! Bhi China'. What's the weirdest nickname people call you? Mickey. My first birthday cake had a Mickey Mouse on it. And that's where the name ...
