a day at craft exhibition

Luckily, there will be two days craft exhibition in my home town beginning yesterday and today

(off course i will be there)

i would say,this craft exhibition is more to local craft and it was creative and unique

Sabah was bless to be a  host to the diverse array of plant and animal species

thus, nature is part of life to local people in here

this including the art of local craft

i couldn't choose the best world to describe it

 so let's the picture speak for me

 craft made from colorful papers

adorable swan design

 local craft and 'bakul' made from 'rotan'

perhiasan made from 'manik'

 another craft made from newspaper or unused paper

 nice huh?

 this one made from the 'poker card'

 interesting right?

 colorful item made from plastic ribbon

 here our local craft

 unique basket for you

 made from straw

 this one very interesting, it's actually a custom for the dancer. made from the 'dalai'
(sorry, i only know the local word, but hey it's from a plant that usually grew near the river in Sabah)

 haha, this made by my neighbor in Muruk.
he is master with craft using or made from coconut
in the picture is the 'tabung', price is affordable and my mum also will purchase from him

 here another craft made from coconut called 'the ant'

 local music's tool made from bamboo

 the sound was very nice and unique

 a sample of our ancestor local house also made from bamboo

another craft from bamboo, hey it's resemble the 'periuk kera' which can be found in rain forest here


there still are lot of craft that i did not snap
