Behind the Scenes: My Handmade Studio & Stall
Ever wondered how a roll of cotton cord turns into a macrame keychain or a wall hanging? Get a peek behind the curtain at my studio in Gurugram, where every knot is tied by hand and every package is prepped with care.
This video shows my packing process for the Kalpavriksha. It's a long process because I make sure each piece is packed securely to reach its new home safely.

About My Handmade Process & Stall
Every piece you see here starts as a roll of 100% natural cotton cord on my workspace table. Whether I am prepping a single customized keychain or packing fifty pieces for a wedding, the process is entirely manual. I handle the knotting, trimming, and eco-friendly packaging personally, so expect the slight quirks that come with real handmade work rather than factory-line perfection.
A Peek into My Studio
My world is all about threads, knots, and chai. Because everything is handmade here in Gurugram, the process is by definition slow. I do not use machines to mass-produce my keychains or wall hangings. Instead, I measure, cut, and knot every single piece myself.
Why I Focus on the Process
Transparency matters. When you buy from me, you are not getting something that came off an assembly line. You are getting a product made by hand, often while I am enjoying a cup of tea. If you order in bulk for a wedding or corporate event, I treat every keychain with the same attention as a single custom gift. I use 100% cotton cords because it is earth-friendly, and I personally check every clasp and bead before it goes into your package.
Meeting You at Exhibitions
Some of the photos here show me at local exhibitions like those at the Gymkhana Club. Those events are the highlight of my work life. They are where I get to meet you, hear what you like, and show you the tactile quality of my crochet and macrame work. If you have visited my stall, you know I love showing people how the work is actually made.
A Note on Customization
If you have an idea, such as a specific color combo for a keychain or a unique size for a tapestry, let me know. Since I am the one making it, I can adapt to your vision. Just reach out, and we can figure out what works best for your gifting needs.
