Why Everyone is Crazy for these Circle Flower Tissue Sarees? I don't know only!
Actually what happened was last week my sister's daughter's wedding was there na? So we all went to the big shop... u know that one in the corner? Big big lights they r having n AC is so cold like we r sitting in Ooty or something. My wife is saying she want something "premium". I am telling her why premium? Saree is saree only na? But she is not listening. She is seeing one thing called Circle Flower Tissue Saree. I am thinking what is this tissue? Like the one we use for wiping hands after eating oily samosa? No no... this is different.

Actually it is looking very shiny. like that gift wrapping paper we get in the stationery shop. but very soft. n it is having these small small circles... what they call? butta? no wait... they r calling it flower butta but it is looking like a circle only. like a ten rupee coin but with more design. i am telling u... people is going crazy for this.
Actually what is this tissue cloth?
See, i am not a big expert in clothes n all. I am just a common man. but if u ask me... this tissue saree is like... how to say... it is very thin. if u hold it against the light u can see through it also sometimes. but it is bridal silk only! people is calling it silk but it is having some metallic thread. zari i think. that is why it is shining so much. i saw one lady in the wedding... she was wearing golden color tissue saree. my god! i thought some light bulb is walking. so much shining.
And it is is very light. u know those heavy kanchipuram sarees? my wife is having one... it is like carrying one sack of rice on the shoulder. she is wearing it for two hours and then she is complaining about back pain for three days. but this tissue saree is very light weight. it is like Circle Flower Tissue Sarees wearing nothing only. very easy to walk, very easy to dance also. my niece was doing some dance on stage... what they call? sangeet? she was wearing this only. she was jumping like a rabbit and saree was not falling also.
Why weight is so less? i was thinking…
i asked the shopkeeper man... he is having big big moustache n he is drinking tea every ten minutes. i asked him "bhaiya, why this is so light?". he told me it is "premium quality". what is premium? they just say that to take more money from our pocket na? but he said the thread is very fine.
* it is not like old sarees.
* the weave is very thin.
* they r using this... what they call... organza type feel?
* actually it is not organza. it is tissue.
my neighbor... u know mr. sharma? his daughter also bought one for her engagement. she was saying it is very "trending". nowadays everything is trending only. if i wear my old lungi n go out, maby that will also trend? i don't know. but this circle flower design is realy popular. it is having those round round flowers all over the body of the saree. some are having big circles, some are having small. my wife likes the small ones bcoz she says it makes her look slim. i am not saying anything... if i say she is not slim then today no dinner for me!
My memory is becoming bad na? let me think about the price
wait... what was the price? i think the shopkeeper told 5000 rupees. no wait, it was 8000? actually it depends. if u go to big showroom they will tell 12,000 also. they will give u one fancy bag and one bottle of water and take 4000 extra. if u go to small street shop in the market, u can get for 4000 also. but u have to bargain. i am very bad at bargaining. my wife is the champion. she will ask for 50% discount and the shopkeeper will start crying.

actually this SEO... what is that word people use? online shopping! i saw on my phone also. there r many websites selling these circle flower tissue sarees. but u have to be careful. sometimes they show one thing in photo and send one rag for cleaning floor. one time i ordered one t-shirt n i got one small baby dress. i was so angry on them! so if u r buying bridal saree, better to go and touch the cloth. feeling is important na?
The struggle with the blouse piece
every saree is coming with one blouse piece. but this tissue saree is having very thin blouse. my wife was saying "how i can stitch this? it will tear!". she had to go to three different tailors. one fellow said he will do it in two days, but he took two weeks! every day i am calling him and he is saying "sir, power cut is there" or "sir, my machine is broken". yesterday only we got it back. Circle Flower Tissue Sarees.
and u have to put lining! if u don't put lining, it will be like wearing a net only. very itchy also. that zari thread is sometimes poking. Circle Flower Tissue Sarees

Colors and all... so many colors!
when we were in the shop, they showed so many colors i got confused.
1. peach color (looks like light orange, very nice)
2. powder blue (my wife said it is cool color)
3. lavender (everyone is wearing lavender these days, why? i don't know)
4. mint green
5. rose gold (this is the most "premium" one i think)
actually rose gold is looking very rich. it is not gold, it is not pink, it is something in between. like when u mix tea and milk in wrong proportion? no, that is looking bad. rose gold is looking very beauty.
i am thinking... why we spend so much on sarees? anyway it will go into the cupboard after one day. but bridal collection is like that only. it is for memory. but realy, these tissue sarees Circle Flower Tissue Sarees r good because u can wear them for other functions also. not like those 2kg heavy sarees which u wear once and then it becomes food for the insects in the cupboard.
One more thing i noticed...
the border! the border of these circle flower sarees is very thin usually. they call it "sleek border". nowadays nobody wants those big big borders that reach up to the elbow. my mother used to wear those. but now young girls want "minimalist" look. what is minimalist? it means they pay more money for less cloth. ha ha! i am joking. but realy, the thin border makes u look tall. my niece is short like me, but in that saree she was looking like one heroine from movie. maby it was the heels? she was wearing 6 inch heels. i told her she will fall n break her leg but she didn't listen. Circle Flower Tissue Sarees
actually what happened was... she almost fell! but the saree is so lightweight that she managed to balance herself. if it was heavy silk, she would have gone down like a building in the rain.
How to take care of this tissue saree?
my wife was asking the shop man "can i wash this in machine?". the man almost had a heart attack. he said "no madam! only dry clean!". so u see, maintenance is there. u cannot just throw it in the bucket with ur daily clothes n surf excel. u have to give it to the dry clean shop. they will charge 300 rupees. every time u wear it, u have to spend 300 rupees. this is the problem with premium things. it is like buying a big car and then crying about the price of petrol. Circle Flower Tissue Sarees.
talking about petrol, did u see the price today? it is going up and up only. my Circle Flower Tissue Sarees scooter is drinking petrol like it is water. what to do... goverment is not doing anything. anyway, what i was saying? yes, the saree.
u must store it in one cotton bag. don't put it in plastic. my wife is having these many cloth bags she made from old bedsheets. she puts all her "premium" sarees in that. it keeps them fresh. otherwise that golden zari will become black. then it will look like u bought it from a second-hand shop. nobody wants that na?
Is it really for brides?
people is asking me "is it really for brides?". i am telling u, yes! especially for reception or engagement. for the main wedding, people is still liking those heavy kanchipuram or banarasi sarees. tradition is tradition only. but for other functions, this tissue silk is best. it looks very modern but also traditional. because of those flowers. flower is always traditional na?
and it is very easy to drape. my wife takes one hour to drape normal saree. she is standing in front of the mirror and making those plates... what they call... pleats? she is making them and then she is unhappy and she is doing it again. i am just sitting on the bed and looking at my watch. but with this tissue saree, she did it in 15 minutes! i was shocked. i asked her "are u okay? why u finished so fast?". she said "it is the fabric, it is very cooperative". i wish my kids were also cooperative like this saree fabric!

Actually, i was thinking about that wedding again. The catering was not good. They put too much salt in the paneer. I told my wife, "see, we spend so much on sarees and jewelry, but if food is bad, people will only remember the salt!". She told me to Shut up and eat My Ice Cream. Ice cream was also Melting Because the AC was not working in the Dining Hall. What to do... this is how Indian Weddings are. full of drama and full of beautiful sarees.
Wait, i forgot to tell u Circle Flower Tissue Sarees about the pallu! The pallu of this circle flower tissue saree is usually very heavy with design. Even if the body is simple, the pallu will have big big flowers and zari work. When u let it hang on your hand, it looks very rich. My wife likes to pin it, but her sister likes to let it flow. both r looking good only. Circle Flower Tissue Sarees.
I am thinking to buy one more for my sister for Diwali. But she is very picky. She will say "why u bought this color?" or "the flowers r too big". It is very Difficult to Please Everyone. Especially When it Comes to Sarees.
Let me think... is there anything else?
oh yes, the prices is changing every day. like gold price only. one day it is 5000, next day 5500. they say "new stock arrived". it is all a trick i tell u. but what to do, we have to buy.
Okay, my wife is calling now. She wants me to go and buy milk. Always some work is there. I am going now. If u r planning to buy this saree, just go for it. It is looking good and u will not feel like u r carrying a mountain on your back.
Just remember... Circle Flower Tissue Sarees check the quality properly. Don't let the shopkeeper fool u with his sweet talk and his tea. Look at the zari, look at the thread. if it is looking too plastic, don't buy. Tissue should be shiny but soft.
Okay, bye bye. I am going. Milk shop will close soon. He is a very grumpy man, if i go late he will not give. yesterday only i had a small fight with him about the change. he is always giving chocolate instead of one rupee. i don't want chocolate, i want my rupee! anyway, that is a different story. bye!
