Do they have to be paint buckets? I would think they would not be good for gardening? Maybe others will know more about that. But in the U.S. you can get 5 gallon buckets from some local businesses like bakeries, food store chains, places like those that regularly use items they get in the buckets. For instance a bakery usually gets stuff in 5 gallon buckets and often has to throw them into a dumpster as they can only save so many. Some businesses now sell them for a small fee, maybe 1 dollar U.S. each and some just give them away. I think the cost of shipping them to India would be more than the cost of buying them. You could try setting up a fund on Kiva.org and possibly get enough donations to purchase food grade buckets instead of using ones from paint. Good luck with this project and please update us as to your progress.

you can try using some 3d design software on your own... for example, try google's sketcher... trust me it is not so difficult that you can not use... thanks

hello...I would like to suggest that for the balconies, close out the single doors and convert the walls into full length french doors for a contemporary look. also, the opening to the balcony from the puja room can be closed and can be made from the bedroom instead. that way the privacy of the pooja room is maintained

Hi Karthik, You have given 3 pics of your cabinet areas and a pic of your entrance part ,i guess..so to develop a design we need your layout plan along with clear picture of areas with dimensions which you want to act upon. Moreover your approx budget is also required. Regards, Sujoy
