Cottage presents a beautifully handcrafted a Papier Machie craft Elephant. This is combined with natural glue which is soaked in water for 10 to 20 days, then hammered into a thick pulp mash, which is left to dry partially. Each piece is then given a form by hand, putting successive layers of the paper pulp around a central core for basic shaping. When thoroughly dried, a base compound is applied for extra strength and is further smoothened by sand stone. Next a thin rice paper is applied on top with cloth reinforcement in the corners and on the base to protect against expansion or contraction in different climatic conditions. The surface of the article is smoothened with a special stone made of hard burnt brick called "karkod". Then the desired pattern is hand drawn on the surface and completed with an array of colours which results in smooth and attractive products. The Paper Machie products are hand crafted and hand painted in very fine and intricate paisley design. On colour base, intricate design has been drawn in different shades which adds to the beauty of the product. Fine detailing of the intricate design can be well seen with magnifying glass. Water based colours and natural pigments have been used in the product. Finally the product is coated with lacquer which protects it from water and gives it extra durability.

Bangles are traditionally solid bracelets,
originated from the Indian subcontinent, which are usually made of metal,
wood, glass, lac or nowadays plastic. They are traditional ornaments worn
mostly by women from the Indian subcontinent. It is common to see a new bride
wearing glass bangles at her wedding,
the traditional view is that the honeymoon will end when the last bangle
breaks. Bangles also have a very traditional value in Hinduism as it is
considered inauspicious for a married woman to be bare armed. Bangles may also
be worn by young girls and bangles made of gold or silver are preferred for
toddlers.
Bangles popularly known as Kannada: ಬಳೆ Bale, Nepali: चुरा Chura, Bengali: চুড়ি churi, Assamese: খাৰু kharu, Tamil: வளையல், Hindi: चूड़ी Choodi, Marathi: बांगडी Bangadi, Telugu: గాజు, Urdu: چوڑیاں, Pashto: بنګړې and Balochi: بنگڑي Bangří.
Some men and women wear a single bangle on the
arm or wrist called kada or kara. In Sikhism,
the father of a Sikh bride will give the groom a gold ring, a kara (steel
or iron bangle), and a mohra. Chooda
is a kind of bangle that is worn by Punjabi women on her wedding day. It is a
set of white and red bangles with stonework. According to tradition, a woman is
not supposed to buy the bangles she will wear.
