The Better Letter Box

A pimped up letter box – keep the posts coming in!

Who said the old world charm of handwritten letters and posts no longer exists? If you have a funky little letter box at your door step, we’re sure that people would love to get their letters delivered to your home.

With a tattered old letter box as our starting point – we went about to deliver a totally new funky look to it. It all started with a coat of paint. Then to add some chutzpah, we stuck an eclectic color print on the letter box flap. The drama of the sticker completely lifts the mundane box. Now comes the fun bit – we slinged in two brown belts on either sides to give a buckled up bag effect.

With 3 simple steps we managed to totally quirk up this letter box. With this kind of a letter box - the old world charm of handwritten letters and posts still for sure exists!

It’s a Girl

Baby announcement – sweet little things for a sweet little thing.

All the congratulations to my dear brother and my dear bhabhi, on bringing us a gorgeous little baby girl.

We gave all near & dear ones a box of milk chocolates, for which we designed a cute label highlighting the ‘it’s a girl’ baby announcement. We used CorelDraw to make a blue & red themed label, highlighting the baby’s name, the baby’s date of birth and the baby’s cuteness.

With abundance of joy, we welcome our beautiful niece ‘Batul’ to this beautiful world.

Wooden Name-Plate with a Dash of Nature

An exquisite name-plate made of wood & flowers to adorn your home entrance.

Every house has a story, and every name-plate is the title to that story. Thus, it’s imperative that your title/name-plate be as beautiful as the story inside.

For our name-plate design project, we used polish wood as base and etched out the surname in golden, cursive fonts. Our idea was to give the name-plate a more stylish-naturesque look. So we pegged up a flask glass to the name plate to serve as a holder. We can put fresh flowers every day or keep artificial ones, as per our preferences. Lastly, a golden chain attachment helps to position the name-plate on a hook.

With this beautiful name-plate at your door, welcome guests and yourself with the freshness of flowers and the warmth of love.
