Vatika Arts & Crafts

We’ve been here at Z Block for a while now. 1092 on 13th Street is where you can find us if you’re walking around Annanagar. It’s a busy enough spot. Mostly, it’s just us looking after the items we keep in stock. There are a lot of small things to keep track of when it comes to Vatika Arts & Crafts. Sometimes the shelves get a bit cluttered, but that’s just how it goes when you have so many different materials coming in and out. Most days, it’s just the usual routine of unpacking boxes and making sure everything is where it should be. We try to keep the place organized, though it doesn't always stay that way for long. If you come by, you’ll probably see us sorting through stuff or helping someone find a specific color of thread or a certain type of paper. It gets a bit hot in the afternoons, but the fan keeps things moving. The 13th Street crowd is usually pretty steady. We don't do much fancy talk here. We just run the shop and try to keep things simple. People from around the neighborhood stop in for bits and pieces they need for their projects. It's a local thing, really. Not much more to say about it than that. We are just here doing our work every day, making sure the supplies are ready. It's a lot of manual counting and moving things around, but we've gotten used to the rhythm of this street.
