One of the deepest and noblest of human emotions…
The Bond of Love between a brother and a sister …
One of the most important festival of our human culture is Rakshabandhan.
This rakhi is made with white and golden pearls. And is presented along with red tilak and chawal and chocolates which are the essentials for the rakhi occasion. And Yess for omen(Shagun) we keep envelopes which is considered as a good sign for blessing.
Happy Rakshabandhan!
By Sakshi Mantri

Maroon and white denotes purity and peace . So on this auspicious occasion of Raksha Bandhan I want to promise my brother that their will always be purity and peace between Us. I will always stand by your side. Sending you all my love on this special day ! Happy Raksha Bandhan.
-Regards Riya.

I am a girl and I made this rakhi for my elder sister using ribbon, clay, some old beads and stickers because at our family we don’t believe that it is only a brother’s job to ‘protect’ his sister. Rakha bandhan is a bond of love and whether it be brothers or sisters they can all protect and care for each – other alike.

I have used threads , some golden Pearl’s , some small silver stones , scissor and fevicol in this rakhi to symbolize that our bond always remains strong like threads that binds two souls in a bond of joy forever shine like pearls and unbreakable like stone…..
Wish My Brother A Very
Happy Raksha Bandhan

Raksha Bandhan is celebrated throughout the country to celebrate this pure bond between siblings. Here in Pahal Design Institute we’ve got the opportunity to participate in this Rakhi competition and I’ve made this colourful Rakhi with a ribbon, used craft paper, old bindis and craft material leaves along with diamond shaped mirror with lots of efforts and love for my brother who absolutely loved seeing it on his wrist. Though we always fight like cats and dogs, keep teasing each other but he’s always been my partner in crime, and my best friend when it comes to convincing our parents or listening to each other’s nonsense stuff. This dramatic, colourful and glowing Rakhi perfectly describes the unique relationship shared by me n my bhai. Name:- ishika arora

My brother is a biker and he is extremely fond of leather products so I made a leather rakhi for him using vegan leather and pearls. I took a contemporary view on traditional rakhis and keeping in mind the Hindu festival used 100% vegan leather.

I made this rakhi, with the help of matchsticks, to give a floral design, and as we all know that that in Hindu’s festives for showing goodness and purity red and yellow colour is used, so taking this concept i also made the red and yellow furry decorating material with the help of threads,which highlights my rakhi and I used oxidised little pearls and last but not least in the centre i use a beautiful reflective stone.
HAPPY RAKSHABANDHAN.

My sister is my role model and she is always there for me, motivates me to do better in life and fulfills all the responsibilities of a brother. She is my sister as well as my brother. My sister’s favourite color is green so i made her a green colored raakhi using green threads, some stones and beautiful white pearls. I used the things which were already available here at my home to celebrate our “lockdown wala rakhi”

Ye Lamhaa Kuch Khaas Hai,pandemic ka time start hai ,
Sister Ke Haathon Me Brother Ka Haath Hai, with hand made rakhi !!
I have made this rakhi by the help of mould it clay , nd used Jewellry wires to make hooks ! I have applied mod podge to make it waterproof . The embroidery work is done by self made ceremic tubes ! I was made lotus on the rakhi as lotus is the symbol of purity , symbol of divine perfection , also most liked by goddess lami who shower blessing for good Heath nd prosperity! All the bright colors are been used to symbolise “shine bright “ even when surrounding are dark nd dull ! 🙂🙂😇😇

My Rakhi represents Corona as we all can’t stop thinking about it. As this pandemic has shutdown everything around us. But one positive outcome we can say is that it gives us a lot of family time together…
So this Rakhi I wish all of us to be strong, healthy and safe.
Astha

I have used pearls in this rakhi to symbolise that our bond always remains strong and unbreakable and we stay together just like these beautiful pearls. Understanding between me and my bro remains as clear as these pearls
Akanksha

This rakhi is for my brother this is not rakhi this is the trust bond which will always be built it will make my brother protective this rakhi always remind us the love between us the thread has the very deep meaning. The bond the bro sis have from the birth no one bond is more stronger than this birth
This rakhi always remind us the bond we have and make our bond more strong.
Shivani

I made this rakhi for my sister… being a fashion design aspirant, she always appreciate the hand woven tradition of the Indian culture..I used embroidery thread and wool and beautifully weaved intricate crotchet flower.. Being amidst the bounty Mother Nature, I’m greatly influenced.. So therefore made the rakhi’s band of green and yellow colour, representing the birth and senescence of the leaves. This rakhi is the symbolism of the ebbing Indian tradition and the Mother Nature…. Srishti Lahiri

Raksha Bandhan also called rakhi ,is the Hindu festival that celebrates brotherhood and love . The word Raksha means protection ,whilst bandhan means tie .
In our culture it is believed that when a women ties a rakhi around the hand of man it becomes obligatory for him to honour his religious duty and also protect her .
Rakhi is the symbol of love and prosperity

To the butterfly of my life, my sister. Not only does she bring light and happiness in my life but also motivates me everyday to grow and shine.
By Simran Chowdhury

This year because of the pandemic,I could not tie rakhi to my brother but it didn’t stop me from celebrating the festival. I tied rakhi to my sister and celebrated the festival because it’s not about a brother protecting his sister but about siblings protecting each other and being there for each other always!
The rakhi is made from wool, earbuds and decorated with sequence. Student name:- abhiniti srivastava

‘Raksha Bandhan’ is ritual of tying colorful rakhi around the wrist symbolic of protection, love and celebration of relationship.It has shown with the help of ‘Madhubani painting’.’Peacock’ indicates the beauty of relationship and ‘feather’ is sign of ouspicious and prosperity.

My Rakhi is made from cotton used from Ear Buds, decorative buttons taken from suit and saree of my mother.
The Red colour in Rakhi symbolises Love and Yellow colour symbolises Happiness and hope. So this Rakhi wishing everyone lots of love and happiness..

Rakhi is a festival of the bond shared by brother and sister. For my brother, I made a Rakhi in a shape of elephant, stuck wool, and decorated it with colours ,stones and glitter. Also, little bows out of cloth has been attached to it. ❤️🌈
By- Peehu Jain ,Jabalpur

I used a waste scrap paper on which the stones of different colours and shapes are sticking and then take a thread and stick it on the backside so that it can gave the shape of Rakhi.I made this rakhi from
those waste materials that I found in my home.I did my best efforts to make this rakhi more impressive .
Thankyou..🙂🙂

My Rakshabandhan story!
Rakshabandhan is a very special occasion that strengthens the intimate bonding between a brother and a sister.. So, to make this day more special , I participated in the ” Hand made rakhi competition” organised by the Pahal institute.
In this lockdown time, with little resources , i made a rakhi using a few papers , ear buds, stones and a satin ribbon.
My brother and I may fight and argue together but this rakhi is a gesture of pure love for my brother and is filled with lots of love and a promise to always stick by his side.😊🌼

My brother is an artist and he is extremely interested in drawing and colouring.He is fond of using colourful products so, I thought to make colourful rakhi using pearis and colourful threads which shows his emotions such as….. Red which means love , Orange shows his confidence, Yellow shows his creativity, Blue shows that he is responsible, trusting, and peaceful , Maroon shows his strength and Purple shows he is noble

Since my sister is the only sibling I have…I have made this for my sister, with whole heart and unlimited love.
So the rakhi is made up of yellow and red thread,mauli,which is considered very sacred for Hindus. It’s believed that this thread protects us. The base is made of raw red net available at home.It has five petals at the back and 3 at front which when summed makes her b’day month 5+3=8 and the three(silver) hidden behind the front petals(blue) when further added makes my b’day month 5+3+3= 11;she being elder protects me most of the times . Then there is a pom pom that adds to the beauty of rakhi.

Each head of matchstick represents each state of india and there are group of 3 matchsticks,total 8 in number which represents the 8 union territories and also I used yellow colour which represents relationship of happiness and green colour which represents health which we wish for everyone. Also it is comfortable to wear as the base of this rakhi is made up of soft cloth so that it wont hurt.

In Indian tradition, the frangible thread of rakhi is considered even stronger than an iron chain as it strongly binds a brothers and a sisters in the circumference of mutual love and trust. And my brother is younger than me so here a cute smile for him.❤️

Not only a brother but a sister also protects the sister….❤

This year due to pandemic we all are unable to go market to buy rakhi. So I thought to make at home. I’ve made this rakhi with some limited materials available at home. Used thread for base, cloth for making flower and for decoration I wasn’t having fancy materials so I used wire and some pearl head pins.Amrita Priya

I have made Lord Ganesha in the centre of the rakhi to give our relation a new start where we create a lot of good new memories as Lord Ganesha is worshipped before beginning of every puja so that everything remains smooth. And I have used different other colors to symbolise that relation b/w me and and my sister remains colorful and full of good vibes.

राखी कर देती है सभी गीले शिकवे दूर इतनी ताकतवर होती है कच्चे धागे की पावन डोर…i made this rakhi usking a ribbon and flowers. Also i used pink colour as it represents love and happiness and a pearl as it symbolises long life; it is snug to wear as the base is made up of soft ribbon.

Hello!
Ananta Vyas here,
And this is my entry for the rakhi making competition.
My rakhi is flower themed, the concentric blooming flowers represent the love between me and my sister, that like a flower would grow stronger, sweeter with each passing year. My rakhi is made using different paper folding techniques. Also, since i am aspiring to be a designer, i wanted to add a little innovative twist to my rakhi, therefore it is not just a rakhi but also like a little card, that opens and has my sister’s picture and a little note that i wrote for her.
Wishing everyone a happy and safe rakshabandhan! ✨
Thank you.

Peacock’s colourful features symbolize the meaning of lumba in life.
L – lovely
U – unified
M – magical
B – bonding with
A – all

made this plate with glitter paper and left it on it, then I applied the lamp to the lamp and then I used glitter paper and cardboard to roll it and I ready it

Happy Rakshabandhan to all .
I used a circle as to make the middle pendel of rakhi embedded it with clay and golden stones and with the help of loops attached the pearls to it.
