Crowning Glory

Now that the house is finished, the final touch was to finally unveil the window box on top of the house and attach the kalash.  We did hear somewhere that the kalash is said to represent the universe unfolding - not sure how accurate that is!  In any case, it's certainly nice to look at and catches one's eye, particularly with Vic's paint job using a very specially sourced gold paint.  I must admit, though, when I first saw the window box feature, my heart sank and my immediate thought was - yuk!  It didn't look anything like how it was meant to be designed with a gently sloping sloping roof and eaves.  In fact, it just didn't look right!  But more about that later ...
