A Peek into My Creative Journey at Hues of Memories
Behind every piece here is a story of transition, passion, and the joy of creating something by hand. Welcome to my world of art and small-batch craftsmanship.
I run a small handmade business from my home studio. Every order brings a big smile to my face, and your support means the world to me. If you see something you like, please know that your purchase helps my dream grow.
My parents didn't initially understand my choice to leave a full-time job for my art. But now, they are my biggest supporters. My dad even said he'll help me with the business when he retires, and that vision keeps me going every day.
Small business math: quitting your 9-to-5 to escape burnout, only to work a million hours a week for yourself. This video shares some of the real challenges and lessons I've learned on my entrepreneurial journey.
A relative once sarcastically asked, "Kitna hi kama leti hogi? (How much do you even earn?)" just because I work from home. It hurts, but it also fuels my determination. This post is for every small business owner facing similar questions.
After a few months of not working, my motivation hit rock bottom. Setting up this stall and connecting with customers reminded me why I started this business. The joy it brings to people's faces is everything.
From a 6-year corporate career to a mompreneur crafting dreams with love. An accident in 2014 gave me the strength to walk my own path, and today, I've taught over 500 people and fulfilled over 1000 handmade orders.
For my new followers, let me reintroduce myself. I'm Swati, the artist behind Huesofmemories. Art became my therapy after a life-changing accident, and in 2016, this brand was born. It's been a roller coaster, but I'm so glad you're here.
About this collection
You aren't just buying a product; you are supporting a dream. Every scented candle, eco-resin tray, and scrapbook I craft in my home studio is a reminder of why I traded my 9-to-5 corporate job to follow my heart. If you value unique details and imperfections that make a piece truly yours, you are in the right place.
When I left my corporate career in 2019, I wanted to do more than just sell items. I wanted to share a piece of my story. My work, Hues of Memories, is built on the belief that handmade items carry a soul that mass-produced goods simply cannot replicate.
The Craft Behind the Scenes
I specialize in eco-friendly home decor and gifts. I work with Beyond Mix, a water-based, non-toxic eco-resin that allows for stunning marbling and terrazzo patterns. Whether it is a trinket tray, a coaster, or a custom planter, each piece is durable, sustainable, and entirely one-of-a-kind.
My candle range is equally personal. I hand-pour 100% soy wax into reusable eco-resin vessels. Because I do this from my home studio in Bangalore, I can control the fragrance profiles—Vanilla, Lavender, Floral Coffee, and Orange—to ensure they create the right mood for your space.
Why Personalized Matters
I believe gifts should feel like a conversation. Whether it is a personalized greeting card for an anniversary, a scrapbook documenting a new baby's arrival, or bulk corporate hampers for an event, I work with you to match your theme, colors, and message. I don't have a giant factory; I have a workbench and a lot of patience. If you have a specific vision, bolo (just say it). We will figure out a way to bring it to life within your budget.
Running this as a solopreneur while raising my son, Aariv, means I pour genuine effort into every order. Your support helps me keep this journey alive, one handmade piece at a time.
