TEAL FIREFLY
My business has been a labor of love…born from my brand values of celebration, culture, and connection!!
Celebration
The Indian culture is so rich and vibrant and the customs are so unique and special…they should be celebrated in a way that’s relevant and meaningful! I remember at my wedding 8 years ago receiving so many cards women wearing white dresses. This looked nothing like what I looked like during my traditional Indian ceremony…it would’ve actually been a bit insulting if I hadn’t been conditioned over the years to not expect something that’s been thoughtfully tailored for me.
Milestone Card Collection:
We created the milestone collection to balance elegance and whimsy with hand-drawn illustrations. The cards showcase/depict various Indian occasions to CELEBRATE these special occasions in a meaningful way. We hope that by capturing the essence of these important Indian life events in a relevant way, with careful attention to detail, our cards will resonate with those whom we’ve made the cards for. This collection was created to represent the unique and meaningful traditions in Indian culture…it is our hope that the cards will make recipients feel as special as they are as they celebrate their milestones in style!
Connection
In today’s age of technology, so many of us are not present…often staring at a cell phone while loved ones are right in front of us. It’s so important to intentionally connect with those you love…even if for a few moments a day. It’s so important not to get lost in the hustle, make time for those who matter most to you…schedule those nonrefundable vacations, carve out quality activities with your kids because they grow up so fast! There is nothing like a card to express your feelings to those you love and brighten someone’s day!
Patterned Stationery Card Collection:
We created Indian-inspired stationery because we delight in capturing the beauty of the Indian patterns with a vibrant and modern style. The stationery card sets that can be used for any moment or occasion…or given as beautiful gifts because you don’t need a reason to brighten someone’s day.
Culture
As a second generation Indian-American raising kids, I want my children to know that we are 100% Indian and 100% American. I want them to have a strong identity of who they are, a perfect fusion of both.
CULTURAL CARD KITS
This is why I’ve created kits for Holi, Raksha Bandhan, and Diwali; to explain the significance of these occasions in a simplified way…so that my children and other Indian-American children can learn about their culture in a fun, engaging way.
Here's The Simple Truth
For many people, cards are a vehicle in which they feel more comfortable expressing their heartfelt sentiments (rather than face to face). Cards bring joy to both the giver as well as the recipient – win-win!
And when children make a card by hand, they pour their hearts into it!! I have found that there’s immeasurable pleasure in that for both kids and adults alike.
Our Name
What is your favorite color?
Ours is teal. We are attracted to teal because it’s bold and vibrant. We are also drawn to the light of fireflies. We chase that spark. We cup our hands over the coveted glow. It’s magical! But then we let it go. Writing or creating cards is much the same way. We write our heartfelt sentiments in beautiful cards to give them away. We catch the light in order to share it. The firefly is a metaphor for thoughtfulness, beauty and love. It is our hope that these cards will be like fireflies, messengers of joy that light up your world and everyone you give them to!!

5 out of 5 starsThese rakhi were perfect and communication with Laxmi was great. I gave 3 of these to friends/cousins who wanted a simple design and these did not disappoint -- they look even nicer in person. I would definitely recommend.

5 out of 5 starsI came back to place a second order for more rakhis. I love her idea of all siblings sharing rakhis with one another; not just brothers and sisters. Well made card and the rakhis are adorable.

5 out of 5 starsDelivered promptly and so excited to keep this for years to come. It was so wonderful to be able to have a banner that’s signified Diwali. Growing up it was always just the Diyas, and the banners were limited to birthday and Xmas. It felt amazing to have one to quite literally put a name on the holiday that our boys can connect with for years to come! Thanks so much!
