About From My Hands to Your Home
I don't just ship items; I build them. Whether it is hand-painting a 'Mauli' magnet or crafting a 'Khunn' fabric shadow box, every step—from the first brushstroke to the final bubble-wrap seal—is done by my small team here in Borivali. If you have ordered something from us, this is how it gets ready for your doorstep.
Our Studio Process: Heart Over Machines
When you place an order, it doesn't go to a factory. It comes to my workspace. We believe that mass production loses the soul of an object, so we keep our processes small and deliberate. We start by preparing the MDF or plywood bases, sanding them down to ensure a smooth finish before the painting begins.
Material & Craft
We focus heavily on durability and finish. For our wall decor, we use 4mm to 6mm MDF, which we then coat with a professional varnish. This protects your piece from dust and wear, ensuring that the Warli art or Marathi typography stays vibrant for years. For our signature shadow boxes, we source authentic Khunn and Paithani silk fabrics, treating them as backdrops that honor our heritage.
The 'Ready to Ship' Care
Shipping fragile items like glass-fronted frames or personalized nameplates requires patience. We treat each package as a gift. You will find that every item is wrapped in layers of clear cello sleeves and heavy-duty bubble wrap. We know that these aren't just objects; they are wedding keepsakes, birthday memories, or housewarming blessings. We take the time to ensure they arrive exactly as we painted them—ready to be displayed the moment you unwrap them.
