About me

Hi there. I'm Aditi, I'm a South African currently living in France. I've been doing many things for the past few years and now I'm a stay at home mom looking after my 17 month old son.

I started making my bags as a hobbie, just for fun for me, until one day someone stopped me in the Paris Metro and asked me where I got my bag from. This then gave me an idea to start doing do something creative and getting back to sewing and making stuff which I enjoy a lot and voilà ... Aditi of Bollywood creations.

I first started sewing when i was little, I used to make wonderful outfit for my Barbie dolls from my moms scrap fabrics and as a student in South Africa I used to help out at a company specialised in making accessories during the holidays.

I would like to turn my hobbie into a full time/support myself career, but it's a long and very slow process:(

Each item I sell on Dawanda is created and designed by me from start to finish. I make the sketches, then make the pattern, cut out the pieces, sew them together, embellish, and then ship them off to you! Each item is unique and one of a kind, and may vary from piece to piece!I rarely have enough fabric to make two bags.

I mostly use cotton and Japanese fabrics but don't exclude using other materials in the future. The fabric determines and inspires my designs.

Hi! Thanks for the kind words about my bags! The labels that I use I get from a seller on Etsy. Her name on Etsy is JennifersJewels. She is really sweet and does great work. Good luck on your shop!
