Behind the Scenes: How Handmade Jewellery is Created
Take a peek into my workspace where your favourite accessories come to life. From organizing beads to the final polish, here is the love and care behind every handmade piece.
Check out my beautiful bead collection. This isn't even half of it, but organising all these colours and materials is so satisfying and fun. It's where all my designs begin.
Here's a glimpse of my last pop-up stall at the House of Tribe event. It was a wonderful experience, and I loved meeting so many of you and seeing you shop my collection in person.
A quick tip for your jewellery. Always remove your earrings before showering or swimming to protect them from damage. This pair of silver peacock jhumkas deserves all the care.
In my world, a bold, heavily oxidised statement jhumka is the perfect touch of minimalism. This pair, with its intricate peacock design and layered domes, is for those who love their jewellery to tell a story.
These black polish Tabiz hook earrings have a unique, edgy design that goes perfectly with indo-western styles. I've added pearls to give them an elegant touch.

I love you to the moon and back. These black polish ear studs with a crescent moon design are a perfect gift for someone you love, or for any moon lover.

These moon studs were a quick sell-out, but they remain one of my favourite designs to make. The detail in the black polish is just beautiful.

About Handmade from the Heart: Behind the Scenes
Behind the scenes, my workspace is a mix of creative chaos and careful organization. I personally sort every bead and craft each element to ensure quality, but since everything is made by hand in my home studio, you might spot tiny variations that make your piece truly one-of-a-kind.
My creative process starts with raw materials. Whether I am selecting vibrant viscose threads for a custom bangle stack or setting real flowers in resin, I prioritize finding materials that feel special. My bead collection includes hundreds of colours and textures, which I organize to make sure your custom requests are perfectly colour-matched.
When you see the final product, you might not notice the hours of wire-wrapping or the time spent waiting for resin to cure, but that patience is essential to what I do. I believe handmade jewellery should have a soul. Because I handle every step, I can control the quality of the finish and the comfort of the fit, which is why my lightweight fabric earrings are designed to be worn for hours without irritation.
If you are planning a specific event, like a festive gathering or a bridal function, reach out to discuss your requirements. I frequently work on custom orders where I coordinate jewellery colours with the embroidery on your saree or lehenga. This process takes time, especially for custom silk thread bangles which require about 15 days, so please plan accordingly. My work is not just about selling an accessory; it is about creating a piece of art that tells a story, much like a family heirloom. If you have an idea in mind, let us chat about how we can turn it into reality.
