Artifacts from Bhutan

I am back after a long break, with a list of excuses...vacation, school re-opening, project deadlines , family functions, etc, but yet, happy to be back. While I was away, I was on a vacation in Bhutan with extended family. Bhutan is a beautiful and an environment friendly country. Ever since, I have been recommending Bhutan to all. We were there for a week and loved every bit. Vacations are more pleasant with dear ones, my daughter had her cousins to play with, thankfully my husband gel well with my bro-in-laws, and ofcourse I had a gala time with my sisters So all in all it was a good trip.
Bhutan is quite an expensive place. i don’t think you can do a 'value for money' shopping there. Amidst all, yet I managed to shop around for a few Artifacts. Here are a few pictures. Do let me know your thoughts.
