Surely, things take time...

 I didn't know it would get so worse in a few months. I have tried my 100% to get everything back as it was, but I guess few things are meant to be shattered, and few things are meant to be left as they are.

I am sure you did not understand a single bit of what I said in the past few lines, but here is the whole story for you to understand and relate to it better.

I am not a professional artist I am just a child with a passion for creating things with pen, paper and colours. 

In 2023, I started up a page on Instagram with the name ARTIST_HER which simply means artist in her. (you can check it out here: Artist_her )

Soon making art for myself turned into the pressure of making art for others. Lines need to be straight, colour matching and perfection but, arre hold on bhai kuch jyada nhi demand ho gyi? People were not wrong but what I started it for they never know.

This started to turn into an art and craft business because I wanted to grow on Instagram, I wanted to grow.

I lost myself in all this, I started artist_her for the little girl inside me because she loves to paint and she does not see perfection in it she sees the happiness of painting, posting them on #instagram was my biggest mistake, comment nhi h mtlb acha nhi bna, arre yaar likes nhi h growth nhi hogi. I totally forgot that I started it for myself. 

I have completed one whole year of Artist_Her, but my passion for art has vanished somehow. Competition was never my thing; I started it for myself. Although in this great journey, I have gained more than 25,000 followers, my reel went viral, I have come across so many beautiful people, and completed 650+ art and craft passionate creatives orders; for which I am beyond grateful in my entire life, but I am done now.

I wanted my art passion back, I do art because that gives me peace I started art because I love to play with colours, and I started artist_her to show the simple happiness that art gives us.

I will never close my artist_her down, not after what it taught me. I will find a solution soon and will be writing another blog on it.

🎨 Why I Started Artist_her — And What It Taught Me About People

-

I didn’t start artist_her to build a business. I started it to hold space for emotion. Back in 2021, I handcrafted a simple card — no brand, no packaging, no intention of selling it. Just a deeply personal gesture from one heart to another. It wasn’t perfect. But their reaction? That stayed with me. It was in that moment I realized something powerful: People don’t just want to give things. They want to give meaning . They want their emotions to be felt . Their stories to be seen . Their memories to be held in someone else’s hands — literally. ✨ The Birth of artist_her That realization became the seed for artist_her — my handmade gifting studio built on heart, not hype. Today, we create: Story-based scrapbooks and memory albums Custom scratch cards, journals, and light frames Thoughtful, handcrafted pieces that speak louder than words ever could Each product is a collaboration. A shared secret. A little piece of someone’s world — folded into paper, color, a...

Why I Switched from Odonil to Soya Wax Scented Bars (and You Might Want To, Too!)

 Have you ever used those Odonil fresheners—the ones we usually hang in our bathrooms to keep the space smelling fresh? (Yes, the purple-blue one. See the reference image in your mind. And seriously, start eating almonds—I’m telling you, memory matters!) Of course, you have. That’s why you need to read this—because maybe, just maybe, we’ve been wrong all along. Wait—what do you mean we’re wrong? Okay, let me clear the air (pun intended). I’m not here to bash Odonil. It’s been a go-to option in many households, mine included. But once I started exploring alternatives, I realized there are better options out there—ones that are more eco-friendly, long-lasting, and way more fulfilling. Let me introduce you to scented bars made from 100% soy wax . I discovered them a few months ago, and honestly, I haven't looked back since. I initially bought them on Amazon and Meesho. But the real game-changer? A small business I stumbled upon through YouTube. They handcraft soy wax scented ba...
