“Hello friends, my name is Renu Rani and I am from the capital city of India, Delhi. I was born in Uttar Pradesh. I completed my graduation from Rohilkhand University, with an intention of becoming a school teacher.
“Since childhood, I always had an inclination towards creative activities. During my college days I participated in festive fairs like Durga Puja and Dussehra Diwali with full excitement, where I exhibited my handcrafted items like small birds, garlands, snowmen, etc. People appreciated my crafts and also purchased them. It was fun.
“I got married in 2006 and shifted to Delhi. This is when I actually thought of implementing my hobby into a career, instead of becoming a teacher. I started designing and crafting for some local retailers who dealt in Christmas ornaments, sculptures, toys, etc. A lady in the neighborhood who used to work with an export house taught me the orientation, technique and intricacies of crafting the ornaments. I also made polyester tissue pouches for ornaments, and jewelry pouches and jewelry box cushions at home.
“It was in 2010 that I decided to start out on my own. My husband is my constant support. He encourages me and stands with me in all my decisions. Now I have a small workshop of my own with four ladies to assist me. I mostly do the designing, while the other ladies craft the ornaments. My husband takes care of the logistics and finance.
“Giving shape to the fabric ornaments is the best thing about this craft. We design and craft each ornament out of felt fabric. Each piece is then stuffed with polyfill to give the right shape and size. We create felt ornaments, garlands and buntings for Christmas. We also take orders for any other occasion, according to the requirement of the customer.
“Working with me gives my team members opportunity of employment and financial stability. The ladies feel independent and proud that they are able to contribute something towards their family.
“I have a daughter and a son who are equally interested in this craft and spend their free time with me, appreciating the beauty of the craft. They are very young now. But I hope as they grow up they also learn the craft techniques and create lovely ornaments. I also look forward to teaching this craft to anyone who is interested.
“In 2019, I got recognition as an artisan by the ministry of textiles, and had the opportunity to participate in the museum craft fair.
“I am so excited and grateful to you for giving me a platform to exhibit my talent. I hope that you purchase my products so that I can help my co-workers, keep the art alive, and transfer this skill to the next generation.”

Sally D.Beautiful on My Christmas Tree
Wonderful elephants, vibrant colors, and lovely beading! I will part with 3 of them, and tie them onto special friends' Christmas presents. I will probably buy some of the other animals that this exceptional artist creates. Thank you so much!
J
JudithLove these! One to keep - three to "gift"
These little elephants are amazing - lovely details - exceptional quality. I kept one and gave the other three away as gifts.

MagdalenaLove them!
Sweet and colorful. Each one is slightly unique. Planning on using them for a mobile.

RobbinI have one in every room of my little house
The craftsmanship is stunning. So much detail and the colors are rich and vibrant. I love these and I am considering another set to give as a gift. Thank you so much for these!

MeganGreat for a DIY mobile!
I used these to make a mobile for my child’s room. They’re cute and lightweight and very well made!
C
CristelleVery cute!
These little elephants are much cuter for real than in the picture. They're extremely well made, and the colors are vibrant. I love all the handmade details on them too. I just loved hanging them on my Christmas tree this year. They made me smile every time I looked at them!

I have a small table top tree that needed a topper. This little bird was wonderful. I plan to keep the bird out year round.

JessicaSits at the top my little tree
I love this cheerful little ornament, and he looks great sitting in the potted pine I use for a Christmas tree. Finding a place for his is now a Christmas tradition. Well made and adorable.

my mother loved cardinals this was one of the last i gave heri thank the artist for giving her a bit of joy before she died

GeraldineQuaint
This a well made item; wool is stitched beautifully over a rubber-type of surface. It appears that it will last for many, many holiday seasons. Please note, they have coordinating ornaments; this item is hollow to allow for it to be the tree topper, but also works well perched on a table.
S
SarahCheerful tree topper
We have been searching for a tree topper than represents our family traditions. We are nature lovers and bird watchers and this tree topper ticked the boxes for us. It is beautiful and we love it!
K
KennethThis is now a cherished ornament and tree topper.
I would like to start by thanking the artisan, Mr. Gehlot, for providing a colorful and unique alternative to the plastic star and angel tree top ornaments you find in the stores. I found this item to be very well made and the small size and light weight are ideal for thinner trees like ours and areas with limited space at the top. It's also very versatile. We actually decided to "nest" it near the top, where it adds color to our mainly light green, gold and white decorated tree. It fits very securely on the branches and looks very natural. I hope Mr. Gehlot receives enough orders to stay busy year round outside the holiday season. Keep up the good work!

LauraSo sweet

TanyaLove my new Robin tree topper
Our tree has a variety of ornaments, including nature and whatnot, not just one theme. This little wool Robin topper is absolutely adorable and totally appropriate for us. It's so cute and perky sitting on the top. Thanks.

DebraYear round cutie!
As soon as I opened the package, I knew this robin was too cute to only come out for the holidays! Perfect size for a little tree, it also sits comfortably on a table or windowsill. Thank-you, Renu!

The item is well made. So unique having a bird as a tree topper as opposed to a star or angel.I love it. Came in a fashionable manner and I was kept informed of the delivery.

NancyHe's the perfect, cheerful tree topper
This robin perfectly tops my 4 foot Noble fir, and sets the tone for my cat-friendly tree. I purchased the "companion" sets of robins from this artist to further deck out the tree. They delight me!!!

MargaretHere is the REAL SANTA!
Renu Rani's SANTA DANCE ornaments are the most adorable Santa ornaments I have ever seen. Why they look just like Santa--as he is in my mind! Very traditional Santa---not cutesy, not overdone. As I said: just like Santa! My favorite of all my ornaments!

EliseCute as can be
Everyone wants to hold these ornaments- even the cat and the dog! I have to hang them high on the tree and swags to keep them from flying away.
M
MaryYear-round friends!
These little birds are adorable -- I have some silver-painted willow branches laced with fairy lights in a market vase on the hearth. These little guys hang from various branches and bring great cheer to our living room! Beautifully made. They would also be wonderful in a child's bedroom.

They are beautifully designed and crafted and are not only a Holiday ornament. I have them displayed in our shop by the Children's section. I like them to decorate a corner in the kids room or next to some indoor, potted plants by the window.

MaryYes indeed, Cute!
Great as package toppers but I couldn't bear to part with them so the all hung on the tree, for years to come. Adorable babies masquerading as bishops.

MariaCute!
Bought these as gift decorations for Christmas and they were a big hit. They are very well made and quite adorable. They look more like Popes or Bishops in the hats, but are still very cute.

VGreat Decoration!
We put these garlands up every year for Christmas! They are made so well! We love seeing the bring colors during the cold dreary months; it definitely brightens things up!
J
JulieYear-round bursts of color for wall
This colorful garland delights not just on a holiday tree but wherever you hang it. Sturdy twine tabs on each end make it easy to hang anywhere. We set one along top and sides of framed art, and another on side of entryway to family room. The wool is soft and so colorful. The garland invites gazing and touching! We love it! It’s not just for the holidays!! We enjoy it all seasons. High quality construction. The string can get tangled (when not hanging) but it is sturdy and always untangles, like a colorful puzzle.
J
JbHanging all year long
I've bought from the artist several times and love everything. Most of the items are hanging on a wooden branch tree that doubles as a Christmas tree when the time comes. It's cute and festive!
