Karaashilp reviving interest in the diverse Indian handicrafts Bangalore

KaraaShilp means “Hand Craft”. Hand crafts are a dying art.Through KaraaShilp, we wish to revive the interest and appreciation for meticulously and lovingly made handcrafted products as also fuse western and Indian crafts to make contemporary lifestyle products.
Also going the green way, KaraaShilp upcycles/recycles materials wherever possible.
This is a small beginning for a giant step ahead and that is to help, teach and provide employment to women and empower them.
We do custom orders in Bangalore and outside too.We would be glad to assist you for custom orders, enquiries, info at [email protected]

Silver Nut Tree Upcycled Products for a greener planet. Bangalore

We at Silver Nut Tree are into creating one-of-its-kind unique handcrafted products for little girls and women including little girls dresses, little girls accessories, jewellery for women, customized designer candles etc etc. Each and every piece here is created with so much of love and care just to see that smile on our customers faces that come from feeling special.

A truly nature inspired line of jewellery in more than one ways, these come in the most prettiest of translucent colours, beaded, hand painted, totally handcrafted. We all know how ‘Plastic’ is literally choking our environment every single day, and actions are being taken worldwide to stop any more production of the same. But what is to be done with the plastic that has already been produced, and used by us, upcycling and recycling is the new mantra of the day folks. Here is a humble effort on Silver Nut Tree’s part to create wearable art from pet bottle plastic, that all of us so casually toss away as garbage.
