After 27 years in a classroom, I turned to my first love: craft. With my daughter Sakshi, I build my days knot by knot, bringing traditional warmth into modern homes.

My daughter was so proud when I was invited to give a Josh Talk about my entrepreneurial journey. I shared my story of going from a history teacher to a macrame artist, and I hope it inspires other women to follow their passion.

This video tells the story of how I started my business. After 27 years of teaching, I rediscovered my love for craft during Covid, and with my daughter's help, turned it into a full-time venture that empowers me and other women.

Being a home-based entrepreneur means juggling many roles. This video shows a glimpse of my daily routine, from managing household chores to preparing orders, taking online classes, and creating content for my page. It's a lot of work, but I love it.

This was a huge moment for me. From being a timid, stage-fearing girl, this experience of sharing my story gave me a new sense of confidence and self-trust. I am so thankful for all the support I have received on this journey.

About Our Story

Because I hand-craft every order myself from my home in Delhi, I prioritize quality over speed. Whether I am knotting a macrame wall shelf or crocheting a floral scarf, I take the time required to ensure the piece is sturdy and intentional. If you have a specific color or size in mind, I am here to work with you directly to make it happen.
