The mission of my business Indic Creations (https://t.co/PGxe8DmEGe) is to bring the very best of indian textiles and artisanship to the American public.
Why this business?
Growing up, I saw my father travel the length and breadth of India for work and always bring back a unique piece of textile, saree, wall decor or art that was unique to the part of India he visited. Our home was always full of painted and crafted wood and metal work, scarves, shawls, sarees...each a unique representation of the part of India it came from. He also brought back stories of the artists who made those items. Whether it was tussar silk from Bengal, block printed bedding from Rajasthan, phulkari quilts from Punjab or kanjeevaram silk from Tamil Nadu. It was endless and diverse.
This business is in a way my tribute to my father's open mind to admire art and skill wherever he went.Thank you dad!
I will continue to listen to what our customers admire and curate the very best from India, bringing affordable luxurious items that pay fair wages and build the local economy right here in America. That's why I started this business and i look forward to connecting with my community here in minnesota and across USA.
Merry Christmas to all those celebrating!
Shana Tova!

#LongRead#SareeSwag#Aboli
I had draped this saffron-colored Mekhela Sador for one of my events yesterday. In the middle of the mandatory photo session, my usual photographer Suvarna suddenly exclaimed, ‘Tai, what a beautiful Aboli colour!’
The moment I heard the word aboli, my mind was instantly transported straight to my childhood days in Goa. In the Konkan and Goa region, aboli plants bloom in every garden. It was even the state flower of Goa once.
There is a poetic silence in the very name aboli. It means one who does not speak. But why was this particular radiant orange-saffron flower given the name aboli? After all, aren’t all flowers silent? Yet, this one alone bears the name that signifies quietude.
Perhaps it is because aboli never blooms with fanfare. It does not have the regal elegance of a rose, the seductive fragrance of ratrani, nor does it dissolve into the morning dew like the delicate parijata. It does not light up the evening with its heady perfume like jasmine or mogara. Aboli simply exists, blooming silently, unnoticed, understated and hesitant, like a shy, introverted girl.
My mother tells me that during her college days, all her friends used to call her Aboli. She truly embodied the name, gentle, soft-spoken, introverted, lost in her own world. Even when someone spoke to her, she would respond with a quiet smile and a few measured words, just like the aboli flower itself.
But when I look at the English name of this flower, it amuses me. Aboli is called Firecracker flower in English! What a contradiction! In Marathi, the name Aboli signifies silent and demure, whereas in English, the flower is compared to a bursting firecracker! It feels as though this flower bridges the two contrasting temperaments, my mother the quiet Aboli, and me, a perpetually lit firecracker!

#sareeswag Enough people have commented on the budget, so I will tweet about the sarees! @nsitharaman is wearing a hand drawn Madhubani saree painted on a Kerala kasavu cotton saree. It is a beautiful piece, but @rashtrapatibhvn is wearing a real stunner! An exquisite Sambalpuri #ikat with very fine work from #odisha!

#sareeswag, a touch of #Gujarat in Karnataka. This is a single ikat saree from #surendranagar district of Gujarat. Often wrongly called and sold as Patan Patola by unscrupulous sellers. This is single ikat and hence, significantly more easy on the purse than the extremely labour intensive #PatanPatola
Indian craftsmanship on display.

#UnionBudget2025 | Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman is wearing a saree as a tribute to Madhubani Art and the skill of Padma awardee Dulari Devi.
Dulari Devi is a 2021 Padma Shri awardee. When FM visited Madhubani for a credit outreach activity at Mithila Art Institute, she met Dulari Devi and had a cordial exchange of thoughts on Madhubani art in Bihar. Dulari Devi had presented the saree and asked FM to wear it for the budget day.

I look at fab India and I see nothing but commercialized culture starved brand that sells Bollywood in the name of Indian craftsmanship. Soulless. We need ventured that curate the best from small artisans and educate the world about that craftsmanship. I am looking to do that with @IndicCreations . Always looking to source authentic hand made unique apparel and home decor and tell their story wherever I can.
Pleased to announce that we are live now on the Faire platform! We look forward to connecting with retailers across the world using this platform.
