My grandmom used to make samosas too and I have a cousin who makes great ones.
One can buy excellent samosas, so most people would rather avoid the labour and the deep frying

Just look at number three!!!

Quite agree with ldcinlb (even I have seen where those cute little paws go ... Ugh!)
But I'm fighting a losing battle with our little mutt. For the first 6 months in our house she was perfectly happy on the floor and on her bed. Now she is up on the beds, the sofas, and everywhere.

On seeing the first picture I thought something was wrong with my eyes, or a migraine was coming up. That blurred look would get on my nerves.

Good attempt AT and bad luck. I was torn between yours & Elle Decor and voted differently on different days. The third one is too much like a furnished service apartment.

I like the idea of keeping them in a sitting room instead of coffee table books. Perhaps I'll try a version of the first picture.
I hate to throw magazines away, esp. fashion or decor magazines. I dont subscribe to any but I do hold on to the issues that I have been tempted into buying.

Ease up! Nobody is selling anything.
There's nothing wrong with noticing and appreciating such unfussy, durable items that look so good.

Beautiful! and quite do-able too! For once I am inspired to actually make something

As an Indian from a traditional Hindu family, I am surrounded by devout Hindus. And they all use religious images and idols as art. (Pictures and statues of Ganesha are the most popular.)
As this post says, you see these images everywhere. They are everywhere even in New Delhi homes - in the living rooms, dining roooms, bedrooms, etc. They are certainly not being worshipped all the time!
For many people this is the only "art" they know of or appreciate. It serves a dual purpose: they get the blessings of the gods as they go about their daily routines, and their lives get some added colour.
Why object if a non-Hindu does the same?
