Want to know how it all started?
I am Vidhya Balaji, the designer and owner of Just Crapp. I am from India currently living in Bangalore. I am a full time IT professional who is very passionate about jewelry making....oh no wait...I am very passionate about collecting waste ;) yeah you heard it right. Right from my childhood, I have this habit of not throwing away things even after it has been used like chocolate covers, gift wrappers etc., If I lose one earring, I keep the other earring and turn that into a pendant and make it a fashion. My husband calls me "Crap Bag" courtesy: Phoebe from F.R.I.E.N.D.S ;) So, now you know how "Just Crapp" evolved.
I initially started making jewelry out of wine cork. Then I felt like, I can do much more using wine corks. So have made lot of things for our home like Key Holder, Mobile Holder, Wall Clock etc.,. I just didn't want to restrict my imagination to the wine corks, so started using other items like clips, pencils, buttons and many more. At one point, wherever I go, whatever items I see, my only thought was "what can I make out of this".
Arts and crafts have always remained in a soft corner of my heart and it’s time I make that corner occupy center stage. So here it is "Just Crapp" - From Crap to Craft - giving shape and structure to things that otherwise may have been deemed as crap.
