For those of you using a 44-inch wide fabric, this guide suggests measurements for a standard L Size. Think of this as your starting point. If you're working with different sizes or fabric widths, just adjust up or down accordingly. Hope this helps!
When it comes to how much fabric you'll need, it really depends on the design. We'd recommend having a chat with your designer or tailor before you order, just to be on the safe side.

Yes they are scented and are carefully crafted with all-natural and quality ingredients, and production is closely monitored from start to finish.
The main function of the candle holder is to provide a safe and sturdy holder for the candle to prevent accidents. Placing a burning candle without a solid base is like waiting for disaster to happen. Even a slight push can blow the candle out and the tablecloth or curtains can catch on fire.
Our candle stands are made up of ecological raw materials. Hence, they cause zero harm to the environment.
The aroma in our candles are due to natural essential oils which we include in our wax for more odour.
Candlesticks are one of the best gift ideas for home decor. Whatever it is, the birthday or anniversary of a relative or friend, the opening of a new home, or a gift to a new home is a special piece of art that can be used for home decoration or design.

A small group of Mirs (about 60-70 families) are living on a waste land on the outskirts of village Dasada located near Little Rann of Kutch in Surendranagar district. The women are skilled at beading. This provides them with minimal survival or a little extra income so as to avoid hunger and loss of dignity in dire situations. Eklavya Foundation and Soar Excursions decided to work with the community for the past two years with an objective of social and economic development of this small community on pilot basis. The women are trained and provided with raw materials that helps in value addition. The project led to the improvement in the quality of their hand-beaded bangles and developing new items like spectacle strings, necklace, bracelet, and anklets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0155\/8131\/files\/WhatsApp_Image_2020-11-07_at_3.24.13_PM_480x480.jpg?v=1604746020\" alt=\"\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0155\/8131\/files\/WhatsApp_Image_2020-11-07_at_3.24.13_PM_480x480.jpg?v=1604746020\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eiTokri Crafts Initiative is involved in designing, production and sourcing authentic handicrafts products from across the country.
