Festive season is upon us and that just means spending time with our loved ones feasting on delicacies, sharing moments, exchanging gifts, and lots more! While we are certain that you’ll manage the feasting and making awesome memories, the gifting part is a source of worry for many. It’s certainly difficult to find awesome gifts that only stand out from the rest but also delight the receivers to no end. And of course, what can convey your emotions and affections better than a thoughtful gift!
So where does one begin? Turning to Indian culture and heritage is a good start – you can find something that’s innovative while proving to be useful around the home, cater to maximalist or minimalist tastes, and also tick the sustainability quotient, depending on what you’re looking for and for whom. And Uttar Pradesh, one of India’s largest states that boasts of diversity in terms of traditions and talents and skilled craftsmanship, can be just the treasure trove for you to dive into. You can be sure that any of the state’s unique artisanal products you pick for gifting your loved ones will add exceptional charm and character Wto their homes and also serve as great conversation starters.
