The truth is, resin art cannot be rushed. I pour, cure, and sand every piece in layers, checking for bubbles and ensuring the finish is smooth. When you see a wedding frame or a nameplate, you are seeing days of patience and careful attention to detail, not a mass-produced product. Every piece begins with a conversation and ends with hours of quiet, focused work in my home studio. When you send me your wedding varmala or a beloved pet's memento, I start by dehydrating the flowers using silica gel, a process that takes 7 to 14 days to ensure they retain their shape and color before they ever touch the resin. Once the drying is complete, the pouring begins. I work with high-gloss epoxy, pouring in thin layers to avoid trapped air and ensuring a crystal-clear finish. It is a slow, methodical process. I wear safety gear to protect against resin dust while drilling and finishing, because safety and quality go hand in hand. Even the packaging is done by hand—I believe that the unboxing experience should be just as thoughtful as the piece inside. Because I am a one-woman team, I limit the number of orders I take each month. This ensures I can give your project the time it deserves without rushing. Whether you are in Bengaluru or across India, I want your keepsake to be something you can hold onto for years. If you are looking for something that is not just an item, but a story captured in resin, I am here to help you bring that vision to life. ## About Olive Lane by Pragya Arya Hi, I’m Pragya.
