The Journey and Heart Behind Buddy Handmades

This video is from the day my brand turned five. It felt right to be working on this string art piece, pouring all my feelings into it. This brand is my way of keeping Buddy's memory alive, and I'm so grateful for this journey.

It's wild, yaar. I haven't even been to Goa, but my handmade parcel is going all the way to Switzerland. This is the crazy, beautiful reality of running a small business, and I'm so grateful for every single order.

Someone asked what I earn as a small business owner. It's this. The happy messages, the heartfelt reviews, the photos of you with my products. This is what keeps me going.

Small biz girlies will relate. That feeling when you put your logo on a package is just the best. It's a reminder that I'm building this from scratch, one order at a time.

When you buy from my store, you don't just buy a gift. You buy a piece of my heart and help keep Buddy's memory alive. Thank you for choosing to support my small business.

I wish more people understood that the cost of handmade isn't just materials. It's the hours of work, the creative energy, and the love I pour into every single piece I create and pack.

When I first launched string art, I was worried people wouldn't like it. But after two months of patience, I got my first order for this custom nameplate. It was a reminder that good things take time.

Someone asked if I'm a scammer. Well, I put in all this effort to paint custom portraits and create crochet bouquets just to scam you. A little small business humor for you.

It's just a dream, they said. But this dream of spreading smiles through handmade gifts is worth all the hard work. Here I am, putting the finishing touches on a custom string art board for my own brand.
