Story Behind the Art:-
Hi Friends! I am Pooja Arora from the Capital city of India, Delhi. I was born on 17th,Dec 1983. I am very hardworking, dedicated and passionate about art. Since my childhood days I was fascinating by the beauty of fabric and beaded ornaments. I was very keen to know about their making. It amazes me to think how tiny beads and pieces of fabric can create fabulous ornaments. In one word, I was very keen to know all about art and craft. Initially I started with creating beaded necklace as a hobby and then as a gift for friends and family. I decided to learn how to make beaded ornaments and fabric ornaments by watching you tube videos and presentations. After my graduation, I started working for a local market retailer who use to provide me designs and beads to make necklaces and garlands. Bright, dazzling and colorful beads always fascinated me and I was happy with my work , but the real twist came in my life after my marriage. My husband is my mentor without whose support I would not have been what I am today. My husband worked for an export company which exported ornaments and other decorative products. After our marriage when he came to know about my interest in art and craft, he offered to teach me designing and crafting of ornaments, about the use of different shapes and patterns. This was a great feeling of achievement for me. He taught me the use of different patterns and shapes in ornaments according to different themes. As I always wanted to do something of my own, with my husband’s support, I decided to take this up as a profession. My husband decided to leave his job and work with me. It was a big challenge but today I am proud to say that although not in a big way but we are doing well. We have started a small workshop of our own and presently we are a team of nine members who works with us. My husband taught how to craft the ornaments to most of the team members. Along with the other team members, both my husband and I do the crafting work. My favorite thing about this craft is to give shape to the fabric ornaments. We design and craft each ornament out of felt fabric. Each piece is stuff with polyfill to give the right shape and size. We create felt ornaments, garlands and buntings for every occasions like, Christmas, Halloween, mother’s day, Easter etc. It’s so beautiful to be able to achieve your goal and do what you want in life. Working with us gives our team members opportunity of employment and financial stability. My dream is to grow in life and provide financial stability to my family. I am thankful to Novica for providing me a platform to showcase my art to the entire world. Hopefully people will start liking our range of products.
