I always wanted to be my own boss, but wondered how I could fulfill this desire. Bangalore as a hub of employment opportunities, provides job for anyone from any educational and social background and I never had to struggle for a job. After my graduation in Economics, I worked for two institutions. My job roles were nothing connected to what I studied, but still I enjoyed my job, and took up every

but still I enjoyed my job, and took up every responsibility with high aspiration. I was one among the best employees in my work places. But all these things could not satisfy me in terms of the income and jobsecurity. Many times, I had to work extra hours and travel far distances, but I did not feel that my efforts were acknowledged. As days went by, I thought of resigning my job, but the financial responsibilities did not allow me to do that.
In 2015, I had to take in-charge of one of my close relative’s marriage function. As I was meeting people and organizing things, I learnt that marriage decoration is highly expensive and people are never bothered to pay any amount to beautify their functions. For my relative’s marriage one lakh twenty thousand was the least quotation I got from the decoration agencies. This was a turning point in my life. I am good at drawing and also have some skills in decoration and other arts like music, dance etc. I searched a few places and contacted some persons who were engaged in the same business and learnt from where we get necessary things in cheap rate. I also happened to meet a man who wanted to sell his decoration frames, stands and stage materials. I bought all these stuffs from him and arranged flowers and other things needed and did the decoration myself within seventy five thousand rupees. I had the frames with me. Seeing the decoration that day, I got another order and thus the business grew. Within 2-3 months I resigned my job and started concentrating only on my business. I spend considerable time in searching for new decoration ideas and try to incorporate some values and messages through my decoration by fixing words and choosing colors.
