Stringcerely Yours
"Stringfully Yours" is a product of love. With me moving to a new country and setting up my first home, came the urge to do some art. The empty walls needed some lifting and the clinical decor needed a personal touch. This is how I started my love affair with strings. From macrame wall hangings to beautiful intricately done string art, my home got it all. And now I want to share this passion with the world and decorate other people's homes with love as well.

Suds
In our day to day life, we use soap while refreshing yourself with the splash of water either in the proactive morning or drooling evening, or people like me, who love to get refreshed twice. But, what about our skin. The thing about commercially produced soaps is that they usually contain chemicals in various proportions which may damage the skin permanently, for prolonged usage. Moreover, the commercial soaps contain harmful fats of different animals which is not at all clinically safe to use. When we go out for household shopping, we pick the food items specifically marked as organic, then why to compromise in case of soap? There came the idea why not begin the day starting with an organic soap, which is gentle on the skin and genuinely filled with fragrance, which will think about the environment, as SUDS is made of 100% organic ingredients from nature. Even the fragrance is also natural which does not have touched by harmful chemicals.

The Cocktail Flair
The Cocktail Flair arises from my passion to experiment with all things beautiful and come up with something with a practical use but at the same time something which also has aesthetic beauty and is also a piece of art. I like to collect unique pieces for my home from all my travels, not just the usual souvenirs, but handmade local art which is exclusive and one of a kind. With a similar thought in mind, The Cocktail Flair aims to provide exclusive, handmade pieces, which can be used for own homes or as a unique gift. Initially, I was making these pieces for my close family and friends. When I started receiving more positive feedback and word of mouth popularity in terms of orders, I thought of taking this one step forward and creating a brand to put all this together. I hope that whoever buys this product, enjoys and appreciates it as much as I love making each piece.

Upcycle
We are passionate about our planet and we strongly believe that as people we are 100% responsible for protecting our earth and the species that remain on it. In this journey, we realized that the biggest problem was the consumption of one-time plastic in our daily life. Apart from recycling and reducing our consumption, there was a need to find alternatives to our problems. One such area was the overuse of plastic produce bags inside the supermarkets. These bags did not serve any need once we were home and they most likely found their way to the bin. The statistics based on our usage was shocking. At every visit to the supermarket, we collected an average of at least 10 bags. Which means that we consumed at least 520 bags per year. This got us thinking and we decided to act. A year ago we started by looking out for various other sustainable options to replace these bags. There was a specific need but now we had to figure out a way to execute it and also to make it available to others. After various... More
