NiMADE
It’s all starts with imagination. I was thinking for days to create something beautiful and authentic from that imagination. It was at the end of 2018 that my idea becomes real by taking a chance of creating something that makes me happy to do. Since then I start making piece by piece while after my work, promoting the product with some of my friends and colleagues, and researching how to put my work into the market. Why its bracelets? Besides I love wearing watches bracelets is always my accessories, like I mention above I wanted to create something which is close to me and can relieve my stress or make me feel happy when I wear it. Why the brand called NiMADE? The name is having a lot of personal meaning for me. One of them is the signature name of a lady from my place, which I came from the island called BALI. When you hear NiMADE people will know that you are from a place called BALI. It also means that “And I Made’’ it. But most important is that the brand I dedicated to my... More
Nisreen's Collections
At 16 years of age, I began learning crochet as a hobby and would try and display my skills to friends and family.

With only one motto - to design and create handmade crochet with love and passion, Nisreen's Collections strives to bring a smile on every single face. I am a perfectionist by nature, hence at Nisreen's Collections there is no compromise on quality and every product is created with the utmost intricacy and neatness. More

Papercraft Studio
Hi am Manju, and I have been living in the UAE since 2006 and love it here. My crafting journey started about four years ago when I was planning my wedding. A crafty friend of mine gave me some amazing ideas for my wedding favors which turned out to be very personalized and much appreciated. I realized that giving someone something handmade makes a whole lot of difference. Since then I have loved making cards and enjoy every minute of the process. I make each and every card with love and hope that you and your recipient will appreciate it. The joy of giving greeting cards has been lost since the advent of the digital world but some people like you still prefer the old fashioned tradition of giving a handwritten card and to top it all a handmade one makes it more personal.
Purple Swan
Hi there! I'm Rita Jivani, the curator of Purple Swan organic skincare. Certified from an award winning school Formula Botanica U.K. Purple Swan skincare is made with love and passion for plant-based ingredients. It all began with a curiosity of the ingredients used in skincare products and its effect on society. Although a skin regime is a small part of somebody's overall happiness, it does impact self-esteem and is an important aspect of self-care. The skin is the largest organ in our body, so it's crucial to be taking good care of it. ,This led me to creating products with natural and organic ingredients, After understanding the importance of all natural and organic ingredients, I started making products with natural butters, essential oils, and herbs. I always avoid synthetic preservatives, artificial colorants, fragrance oils, petrolatum, and harmful chemicals. To gain more knowledge I did various diplomas in organic skincare and started creating green non-toxic formulas for body scrubs,... More
