Behind the Scenes: My Handmade Process
I’m the person behind Plush. Get a peek inside my home studio where I make your skincare and gift hampers, one batch at a time.
I genuinely love packing products for all of you. I make each item by hand with so much care, and packing them feels like the final act of love before they reach you.
A day in my life as a homebody small business owner. Today I actually stepped out to get shipping supplies and stationery before coming home to pack orders and hand them off to the delivery agent.
This client runs a hamper business and had a special request for packaging. I wrapped all her soaps in brown craft paper. I'm grateful for clients who are flexible and understand the realities of a small business.
This is some behind-the-scenes footage of a shoot day at my home studio. A single product shoot can take hours, from planning the concept and arranging props to shooting and cleaning up, all by myself.
Packing orders is my favorite part of the day. Each package, whether big or small, is filled with products that I've poured my heart into.
I'm always in a good mood when I get to pack orders. It's the final step in my creative process and the moment I get to send a little bit of happiness your way.
After a small break, I'm back at work packing orders. This one is for my regular client Aishwarya, who is stocking up on some of her favorite items.
Some people might find their work boring, but not me. I get to create something new every day, from pouring soaps to mixing new skincare formulations. It's a joy.
Being a small business owner means wearing many hats. I am the product designer, finance head, sales manager, and production head, all in one. Here I am working late to get it all done.
This reel is for every small business owner. As the audio says, you won't find my prices and my service anywhere else in the market. It's a promise I stand by.
About Behind the Scenes: My Process
It takes hours to plan, source, shoot, and pack every single order I receive. I’m a one-person team, so if you order a hamper or a skincare set, please know it’s coming straight from my hands to your doorstep.
Being a small business owner is a wild ride. Seven years ago, it was just my mom and me making soap in a tiny room, and today I wear every hat in the shop—product designer, finance head, and production lead.
Why I Work This Way
I believe in quality over quantity, always. When you order from me, you aren't getting something mass-produced. I source high-quality ingredients, like saffron and natural oils, and mix them in small batches to ensure everything stays fresh. Whether I am pouring soaps, mixing skincare formulations, or packing a box with a handwritten note, I am the one doing it.
What You Can Expect
- Transparency: I show you the real side of running this business, including the late-night packaging sessions and the reality of shipping.
- Customization: Because I make everything myself, I can adjust products based on your skin type or event theme. Need a specific scent or a certain look for your gift hamper? Just ask.
- Heart and Soul: Packing is my favorite part of the day. It is the final act of love before your order reaches you.
I get mehnati (hardworking) and a bit of a perfectionist about my work. If a batch isn't perfect, I remake it. It might take a bit longer, but that is the promise I stand by. My studio is my happy place, and I am grateful for every person who supports this journey.
Plush
I'm the person behind Plush. For me, it’s always quality over quantity, and I pour my heart into every product I make in my home workshop. It’s a lot of work, but *mujhe maza aata hai* when I’m creating something special for you.
