Dahi Handi On Nails!!

Hello friends!

In Vrindavan during King Kamsa’s rule, the villagers were forced to give everything they produced to Kamsa’s palace in Mathura.The children of Vrindavan were thus deprived of milk products. So child Krishna and his friends started to form human pyramids and broke pots that were hung to ceilings of neighborhood houses, in order to steal curd and butter.

As a symbol of Krishna’s childhood naughtiness during Janmastami “Dahi Handi” is celebrated. Here people make human pyramid and break the pot filled with curd tied at convenient height. A participant in this festival is called a “Govinda” or “Govinda Pathak”.

Hello friends!

Vaudevasutam devam Kamsa chaanura mardhanam|

Devaki paramaanandam Krishnam Vande jagadgurum||

It was midnight and the cells in the prison where the mighty couple Devaki and Vasudeva were locked was being guarded. The world outside was dark. For Kamsa, whose mind was preoccupied with the thoughts of killing his destroyer, the wait was coming to an end. Devaki, Kansa’s sister was delivering her 8th child who was predicted to be the destroyer of all evil and protector of all goodness.

The child was born, the savior of the people from agony and pain finally entered the world in physical forms. Vasudeva feared that his son would be harmed and thus wrapped the baby boy in cloth, put him into a basket and sneaked out of the prison  when all the guards were fast asleep by the eternal spells of the child. Lord Krishna was brought to Gokula, where he spent the rest of his childhood.

In this nail art, Creative Nails have tried to depict the scene of how Vasudeva carried basket on top of his head when the rains were pouring and the river Yamuna was flooded. Baby Krishna was brought safe, protected and sheltered with the help of the king of snakes right across the river.

Happy Janmastami!!

Save Water Nail Design!

Hello friends!

Uff! Chubhthi jalthi garmi ka mausam aya!

Summer is back again! People are dying due to sunstrokes and due to the lack of drinking water. Whether it is Summer or Rainy season, it is our duty to save water. Creative Nails is listing a few easy ways to save water.

  • Turn the faucet/tap off while you are brushing your teeth, shaving, washing your hands, doing dishes, and so on
  • Check your plumbing for leaks, especially leaking toilets and faucets
  • Install low-flow shower heads and faucets or faucet aerators
  • Take shorter showers
  • Use waste water or gray water from the bath, washing machines or dish washing on the garden
  • Get or create a dual-flush toilet. This is basically a toilet that flushes a smaller amount of water for when you pee and more water for pooping, thereby saving water
  • Replace your clothes washing machine with a high-efficiency washer. Wash full laundry or dish loads
  • By installing a water meter you can raise your awareness and consequently reduce your water intake
  • Cover your swimming pool. This helps to prevent evaporation
  • Maintain your sprinklers and irrigation. If you have irrigation on timers, watch it run. Fix broken sprinkler heads and pipes and make sure that spray patterns are directed where they are intended
  • Wash the car at a car wash. Car washes may use less water than you can use at home. Car washes also collect and filter the waste water appropriately
  • Care for your lawn in a more water-efficient manner. Only water the areas that need it, and only when there has not been enough rain. Use a trigger nozzle on your house or use a watering can to save water
  • Use mulch on your garden to retain moisture

Warnings:

  • If you’re collecting rainwater, be sure to mosquito-proof your collection system.
  • Due to water rights laws, collecting rain water may be illegal in your area, so check with your community or county first.
  • If you choose to reclaim gray water for garden use, make sure that any soaps or detergents you use are safe for that purpose. Don’t use gray water for food plants.

Swachh Bharat Abhiyan on Nails!

Hello friends!

Today’s nail art is dedicated to our beloved Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi’s “Swachh Bharat Mission”. First of all, Creative Nails wishes to congratulate the Modi Government on the successful completion of 100 days of stable, policy-driven proactive governance.
Friends, Modiji is a ray of hope for the Indian economy. But Modiji alone cannot make India a developed country. As citizens of India even we have to contribute towards achieving this goal!
Let’s say you are going to your friend’s or relative’s house and you find that garbage is dumped in front of house. Would you even like to have a sip of water in that house? You will never like to visit that house again. Isn’t it? Will you like if the same reaction is shown towards India by other countries? Never ever will you like it!! So friends, stop throwing packets of chocolates, junk foods etc. on public property. Use toilets and help keep India clean!!
