You are getting a piece of my story. Every package I tape up in my little Jabalpur studio includes vintage paper, dried flowers, and a bit of the chaotic love that started this whole dream in memory of my dog, Buddy. ### How It All Started Buddy Handmades began in 2020 as a quiet way to process my grief. My dog, Buddy, was my whole world, and this business became my way of keeping his memory alive. I never expected it to turn into a full-time gig, but here we are five years later, and I am still just trying to spread a little happiness through my hands. ### The Handmade Reality Main khud Jabalpur mein baithi hoon (I am sitting here in Jabalpur), but I am amazed that my work travels to places I have only dreamed of visiting. When you buy a custom piece—whether it is a string art board, an embroidered photo, or a crochet bouquet—you are supporting an actual person, not a factory. Every nail I hammer and every thread I stitch carries that 'dil se' energy. I want my work to feel like a warm hug, something that brings a smile to your face. ### The Unboxing Experience I believe the unboxing should feel just as special as the gift itself. I spend a lot of time on the little details, using vintage paper, wax seals, and pressed flowers to make sure the moment you open your package feels intentional. It is not just about the product; it is about the feeling of receiving something made specifically for you. Thank you for letting me share this journey with you, one order at a time. ## About Buddy Handmades I am Resham, and this little studio is my heart. It all started as a way to process losing my dog Buddy, but now it is my daily reality. I hand-weave, paint, and pack every order here, turning your memories into something you can actually hold.
