A Very Happy Holi to everyone.
this holi i decided to use only natural colours. are they really natural? i did not find the price difference that much to believe that it is natural. and if the price difference is not much then why everyone does not use only natural color?
which color do you use?

hi swapna,
thank you and wish everyone here at babymomstreet a very happy and colourful holi.
i think you have got right colour. natural colous are not that expensive weight wise. but you need small pinch of regular color for a bucket of water. however if you are using natural color, you will need little more.
but you are right. we think everything that is herbal and natural is supposed to be very costly. but natural colour is not that costly. all of us can use natural colour.

i did not use natural colors. but i saw many people in my apartment got natural color in big packets. i promise that next year i will also use natural colors.

why do you need to buy them.
i prepare it at our home.
yellow colour: turmeric powder
red colour: from beetroot
orange colour: from carrot
green colour: from spinach

very simple and really fun to play with. not worried at all about colour getting into eyes. i learn the trick from my kid's school. they use such colours and asked us to send all children with one of these colours.

I did not put any effort in preparing colors at home just went ahead and bought some from a friend who stays nearby.
