About Saree Preparation Services
Why I Do This
Wearing a saree shouldn’t feel stressful or take forever. I know the struggle with messy pleats and tangled fabric, especially when you’re running late for a function or just want to keep your wardrobe sorted. My work is all about making saree prep super simple for you.
What I Offer
- Ready to wear saree pleats: I do all the pre-pleating, iron them crisp, and adjust them to your measurements, so you just drape and step out.
- Saree box folding technique: I fold your sarees so they stay crease-free and take up less space. No more hunting for that one saree, it’ll be packed and easy to spot.
- I also handle delicate, heavy, or everyday sarees, and I can add falls, kuchhu (tassels), and even help you get a matching blouse stitched.
How It Works
- Give me your sarees and tell me what you need - pre-pleating for an event or folding for storage.
- I’ll check your measurements for that perfect fit if you’re going for pleating.
- You get your saree back, sorted and ready, minus the drama.
What to Expect
I treat each saree like my own - even if it’s a simple cotton or a wedding silk. Sometimes, really old or delicate fabrics need extra time or care, and I’ll be honest about what’s possible. My main goal is to make sure you feel confident in your saree, without the usual tension.
