Behind the Scenes of My Handmade Keepsakes
Har art piece ki apni story hoti hai. Come inside my studio and see how I turn your raw memories into lasting keepsakes, messy hands and all.
This is my happy place, my studio. It might look chaotic, but it's where all the magic happens. I am so grateful for this space and for every single order that allows me to do what I love. Thank you for everything. ॐ नमः शिवाय.
This video shows the start of my engraving journey. I was so excited to finally get my engraving pen and start practicing on any glass I could find. This is where my passion for hand-engraving began.
This video shows how I take a customer's precious wedding varmala and carefully arrange the flowers to create a stunning keepsake. I truly put my heart and soul into every piece I make.
This video shows the process of creating a custom engagement ring platter. I start with a blank resin tray, add a beautiful dried flower bouquet, and then engrave the couple's names and wedding date.
About My Creative Process
When you watch me work, you won’t see factory perfection. You will see the little chaos of my studio, a mix of resin spills, half-finished sketches, and the slow, steady hum of my rotary tool as I etch details by hand. I don’t use machines for mass production. I work slowly, piece by piece, so that every ripple in the resin or unique stroke in the engraving reflects the human touch behind it.
Every project starts with a conversation. Whether you are shipping me your shaadi ki varmala or dropping off a bottle for engraving, I treat these items as if they were my own. My process is intimate and entirely manual.
For my resin work, it is not just about pouring and waiting. Flowers need to be carefully dried, arranged, and layered. I often guide clients on design choices, sometimes suggesting changes if I know a pattern won’t do justice to the flowers.
When it comes to hand-engraving, this is my me time. I use a rotary tool to freehand names, dates, or quotes onto glass. There is no undo button on glass, so I practice, pre-mark, and breathe through it. I embrace the small quirks, like a tiny bubble or a slightly uneven line, because that is the proof of art made by a person. If you are looking for mass-produced perfection, I might not be the right fit. But if you want a piece that carries the messy, beautiful energy of your life, I am here.
