Handmade Rakhis and Lumbas with a Psychedelic Twist
Celebrate your bond with vibrant, handmade rakhis that are more than just a one-day accessory. No plastic, just wood, clay, and a whole lot of color.
My 'Jhoothi Aunty' is here to (reluctantly) promote my Rakhis! Here she is showing off a hand-painted initial Rakhi, perfect for making your brother feel special.

Here I am showing you the different types of clay Rakhis I've made this year. They come in floral, leaf, and heart shapes, each with a hand-woven cotton thread.
This is a one-of-a-kind Lumba I made for the Rakhi season. It's crafted from polymer clay, wooden beads, and features a real pearl at the bottom.

My whole collection of handmade Rakhis sold out so fast! I'm so grateful for all the love. Each one was packed on these hand-doodled cards.
My AksharBandhan Rakhis lined up and ready to be sent out. You can see the variety of letters and background patterns, making each one unique.

A quick glimpse of some of the Rakhis available this season. Since I make them in small batches, the designs are limited, so it's best to order quickly!
About Handmade Rakhis & Lumbas
My initial rakhis aren't printed—I hand-paint every single letter on wood, then seal it so it lasts long after the celebrations. I don't use plastic beads; instead, I hand-braid cotton threads and add wooden accents, so you get a piece that feels light on the wrist and looks one-of-a-kind.
Why My Rakhis Are Different
I believe festivals should be colorful, not cluttered. Whether it is my AksharBandhan initial line or the hand-cut clay pieces, I avoid mass-produced plastic beads entirely. You will find wood, glass, metal, and high-quality cotton thread in everything I make.
The AksharBandhan Collection
These are my signature initial rakhis. Each one features a hand-painted letter on a wooden base, surrounded by my signature psychedelic patterns. Because I paint these by hand, no two pieces are identical. You get a personalized touch that mass-market options simply cannot match.
Clay & Floral Keepsakes
If you prefer something softer, my clay rakhis are a personal favorite. From floral motifs to subtle leaf designs, these are baked and varnished for durability. They are light, comfortable, and designed to look great even after the festival—many of my customers reuse the central piece as a bag charm or keychain.
Thoughtful Lumbas
For the festive Lumbas, I incorporate real pearls, wooden beads, and intricate charms. These are designed to swing and jingle, bringing that perfect bit of joyful chaos to your festivities.
Since I work from a home studio and make everything in small batches, my designs change often based on the materials I find. If you see a style you love, it is best to grab it before that specific batch is gone.
