It is a small, fiddly detail, but it is exactly what keeps your coasters flat and your wall hangings looking clean. Whether I am knotting a bulk order of keychains or a custom 7-foot curtain, that constant tension is what makes the finished piece hold its shape. My workspace is rarely clean; it is usually covered in cotton cords, scraps, and half-finished projects. That is the reality of creating something by hand. When you order a custom piece, you are not just getting an object; you are getting the hours I spent ensuring the knots are tight and the fringe is combed perfectly. Bulk orders are my bread and butter, but they come with challenges. I have spent weeks in a room filled with cords, meticulously hand-knotting 250 plus keychains for wedding favors. It is a lot of work, but seeing those photos later—when they are part of a haldi ceremony or a baby shower—makes every cut and knot worth it. ### What happens when you place an order? Once you reach out, we chat about the vibe you are going for. Whether it is a specific color palette for a wedding or a quirky design for a nursery, I source the cotton cord, plan the pattern, and start knotting. If it is a large piece like a wall hanging, I mount it on natural wood or driftwood to get that perfect, rustic finish. ### Why cotton? I exclusively use 100% cotton cords because they are soft, durable, and eco-friendly. I do not use plastic-based materials. Yes, it takes longer to process, but it feels better in your hands and looks more natural in your home. If you have a design idea or a bulk requirement for an event in Bengaluru, message me. Let us figure out something beautiful together. ## About Deepika Hi, I am Deepika. My hands are not manicured; they are usually rough, cord-burned, and covered in remnants of my latest project.
