I thought I'd share a bit more about our design process, our artisans and the reason why I sometimes end up choosing the most expensive raw materials...

Every Pri Pri design starts life as a sketch and a bit of sampling. This is 100% my favourite part of the job - I love figuring how to create things from fabric scraps, and bring an idea to life.

The total design process can need several iterations.

, for example, went through about four different versions before it felt right! I tested various wreath ring frames, the right width of strips to use, and how many strips before landing on the final design.

A single or double ring frame would have been far more cost effective, and quicker to complete, 

... it just didn't look as full or give the same sense of luxury as the four ring wreath I eventually landed on. Not to mention the pretty back too!

For products needing a metal frame, we work with a small family business of welders in India, who are able to bring the final design to life, ensuring our wreath frames are perfect for our finished products. Santosh, our chief frame maker says "This was a new product for us and it is interesting to see how it has been used." 

Initially, all Pri Pri designs used kind donations of saris from my mum or aunties!

Now, saris and offcuts are selected with the team of artisans in India via messages and online calls. They help me source the right colours, patterns and fabrics for Pri Pri designs as certain saris aren't suitable for repurposing.

Meet Sarika! She is one of the talented women behind Pri Pri's designs. She had to convince her family to let her attend the sewing course at the charity to receive training. While she initially wasn't confident in her tailoring skills, she is now proud to work across several products and bring in her own income to the family.

When you support Pri Pri, you're not just buying a product - you're supporting a team, sustainable design and craftsmanship! Grateful to every customer who can make a difference to people back in my grandmother's home of Mumbai!
