I have learned that the perfect studio is not built in a day. It is built through late nights, plenty of trial and error with materials like Beyond Mix, and a lot of honest mistakes that eventually taught me how to create home decor pieces that truly last. My creative journey really began in 2014 after a life-changing accident. While I was bedridden, art became my therapy. What started as simple greeting cards for family slowly evolved into Hues of Memories. ### The Shift to Eco-Resin In 2019, I finally quit my corporate job to focus on this full-time. Moving to Hyderabad and then back to Bangalore was a roller coaster. I started working with eco-resin because I wanted to create something sustainable and non-toxic. Using Beyond Mix for marbling, terrazzo, and color blocking became my signature style. It is pricey, but the quality is unmatched. ### Beyond Just Products I realized that my community wanted to learn how to do this too. That is how the workshops started. Whether it is an offline session in HSR Layout or a live Zoom class, I teach everything from bubble-free pouring to business pricing. I do not just teach the craft; I share the reality of the business—the good, the bad, and the courier struggles. ### Balancing Acts Being a mom, a homemaker, and a solopreneur is not easy. Some days, I prioritize my son Aariv over business, and that is okay. My business is not just about sales; it is about building a life I love. I am deeply thankful for every student who joins my workshop and every client who orders a custom hamper. Chalo, seekhte hain (Come on, let's learn) and create something beautiful together. ## About Hues of Memories Hi, I am Swati. I traded my corporate ID for an apron and a bag of eco-resin. I am just a mom living her dream in Bangalore, making sure every candle and coaster I create feels as special to you as it does to me.
