The maker creates. We coordinate.
The artist creates your order, while HobbyMela coordinates the process — from production and packaging to pan-India delivery — keeping you updated along the way.
Before youask us
The things procurement always asks. If yours isn’t here, put it in the brief below and we’ll answer it directly.
What quantities can you order, and how much lead time do you need?
Every piece is handmade, so quantities and timelines depend on the artist and product. We’ll recommend options that work for your requirement and confirm a realistic production timeline before proceeding.
How much can we customise?
Depending on the artist and product, we can explore customisation of colours, designs, sizes, packaging, personalisation and branding. Bespoke requirements can also be discussed with selected artists.
Do you deliver across India?
Yes. We can coordinate deliveries across India, including multiple locations where required. Delivery timelines and costs will depend on the order and destinations.
Can you meet corporate procurement requirements?
Yes. We can raise GST invoices and work with purchase orders and standard corporate procurement processes. Specific documentation requirements can be discussed at the time of order.
Who are the makers?
Our products are created by independent artists and craftspeople featured on HobbyMela. Each maker brings their own creative practice and process, and every purchase creates an opportunity to support their work.
Can HobbyMela help us curate the right products?
Absolutely. Share your occasion, quantity, budget, timeline and any customisation or branding requirements, and we’ll curate handmade options suited to your needs.
These are meaningful, handmade gifts — and HobbyMela can make the process easy for you.
