Hand-Painted Art & Upcycled Decor Showcase
A look at some of my favorite transformations—from forgotten furniture pieces to custom keepsakes that tell a story.
This is what we love to do most: take an old, forgotten piece of furniture and give it a completely new story. We transformed this tired chest of drawers into a vibrant, tropical statement piece that now brings so much joy and color to my room.
Say hello to our hand-painted summer sipper jars. Each one is painted with bright, fruity designs to make your drinks a little more joyful. These glass tumblers are perfect for everything from iced coffee to fresh juice.
Creating personalized gifts that tell a family's story is one of our favorite things to do. We painted this custom three-tier nameplate for Priyanka, featuring her husband and their adorable fur baby, Gracey. It’s more than a nameplate; it’s a piece of family art.
Why have boring pots when you can have beautiful ones? This is a little glimpse from our online planter painting workshop where we teach you how to turn any plain planter into a piece of art for your home or balcony.
A client, Swati, asked us to upcycle her old lampshade, and we were so excited for the challenge. We gave it a tropical twist with a hand-painted toucan and lush leaves, turning it into a unique lighting fixture that brightens up her entire room.
Here’s the original artist, my mom, working her magic on one of our most-loved chrysanthemum bottle designs. Her attention to detail is what makes these pieces so special. It’s a joy to create alongside her.
Throwback to this vibrant Durga Pujo wall plate set we created for a client. We love working on pieces that celebrate culture and festivity, and our whole team had a wonderful time bringing these intricate designs to life.
We believe even everyday items should be a form of self-expression. I upcycled my old, scratched helmet with a splash of color, turning it from a boring safety item into a piece of wearable art that really stands out on the road.
About Featured
When you see a piece here, know that it started as someone else’s clutter. I put a lot of work into the prep—sanding, degreasing, and priming—before the first brushstroke ever happens. My goal is to make sure your custom piece doesn't just look good for a photo, but actually holds up to daily life, whether it’s a chest of drawers or a morning coffee mug.
This collection is a little highlight reel of what we do best. Sometimes people ask why I choose to upcycle instead of buying fresh furniture, and honestly, it’s because there’s something special about giving a forgotten item a second chance. My style is definitely bold, with lots of color, nature motifs, and clean lines.
Whether I’m working on a heavy-duty chest of drawers here in Whitefield or shipping a custom portrait plate across India, I handle every step personally. My mom is the OG artist behind our signature chrysanthemum designs, and she keeps my standard of detail high.
If you’re thinking about a custom piece, here is how we roll:
- Furniture: I need 3 to 4 weeks to sand, prime, paint, and varnish so the finish lasts.
- Decor & Glassware: These are faster to turn around but still require time for the paint to cure properly.
- The Process: We chat about your vibe, I sketch out a concept, and then I get to work in the studio.
I don't do structural repairs, so please make sure your piece is sturdy before it reaches me. Once it’s here, I take care of the rest.

Hi, I’m Tanvi! This is my little world of colors, where I’m usually covered in paint and constantly bugging my Papa for advice on how to fix things. With my mom as our OG artist and a team that keeps me sane, we love turning the boring stuff in your home into something you'll actually want to show off.
