Renuka Handicrafts

You can find Renuka Handicrafts at Shop No. 12, which is right near Shaik College in Nehru Nagar. It is a small space but we make it work for what we need to get done. There is always stuff piled up on the counters and shelves. We do a lot of work with our hands here, sitting at the benches for hours at a time. The neighborhood is usually quite busy because of the college students walking back and forth outside the shop. Sometimes it gets a bit loud, but we are used to it by now. We spend our mornings getting the tools ready and looking at what needs to be finished. It’s the kind of work that takes a lot of patience and steady hands. My eyes get a bit tired by the end of the day from looking at the small details. We don't have any big corporate systems or anything like that. It’s just us in the shop, keeping track of things in a notebook. People come in and talk for a bit while they look around at what we have. We have lived and worked near Nehru Nagar for a long time, so we know most of the neighbors. If you are looking for us, just head towards Shaik College and you will see our shop nearby. It is a simple setup with just enough room to do the work. We keep the doors open to let the air in when it’s warm outside.
