The Internet is filled with posts which showcase immense creativity of people. They capture how some people have the talent to create wonderful and awe-inspiring artworks out of seemingly unassuming objects. Just like this tweet by a daughter about her mom. It shows a gajra, a flower garland worn by women as a headpiece, designed using a tissue paper.
