DIY- Make Ganesha Idol at Home |வீட்டிலேயே மண் பிள்ளையார் செய்வது எப்படி?

As Ganesh chathurthi is approaching, how nice it would be to make our own Ganesha Idol at home and showing our creativity. So this year, I made an attempt although I am only a novice and not a professional in this art. But i realized that it it is not all that difficult as i assumed in the beginning and i succeeded in making Vinayagar or pillaiyar to my satisfaction.
