Meet The Maker
Hi! I am Jyoti. I am the founder and maker of Sijon Handcrafted. By profession I am ECE and holds the master degree in Physics but first of all I call my self an artist. Sewing has been a part of my life since my childhood. This all started by making dolls clothes and then it conveted into making my own clothes. With time I taught myself so many skills like hand embroidery, mirror work, knitting and that learning process made me so curious to educate my self more and more during my schooling. I used to make clothes for my teachers and neighbour. Passion for sewing has been always there. I love vintage style and the vibe of that style of clothing. At Sijon, you are going to find fusion of vintage and indian style of clothing. I can not wait to see you all wearing my handmade clothing and accessories.
