Posted on by Sareeing Official

It is not just about buying the right sarees, but also maintaining sarees when not in use.

Saree maintenance

To maintain sarees fresh in a wardrobe, you should follow these steps:

  • Make sure the sarees are clean and dry before storing them.

  • Fold the sarees neatly and place them in a cotton or muslin bag. This will protect the sarees from dust and insects.

  • Avoid storing sarees in plastic bags as they can trap moisture and cause mold or mildew.

  • Keep the wardrobe in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.

  • Rotate your sarees so that they have time to air out before being worn again.

  • Avoid storing heavy or bulky items on top of the sarees, as this can cause creasing or damage.

  • Iron the sarees before wearing them if needed.

Additionally, you can use lavender or neem leaves, or camphor to keep the moths away.

Posted on by Sareeing Official

There’s nothing like the best or perfect manner of wearing a saree. It’s all about how comfortable you feel while you carry a saree. However, based on my experiences of wearing sarees for so many years, I would like to mention a couple of pointers here.

Saree draping hacks by Prachi

  • Make sure your saree pleats are neat and not too short or too long which makes it difficult to walk in a saree.

2 Easy Draping Tips for SILK SAREES

Posted on by Sareeing Official

Silk saris are one of our most prized possessions in our wardrobe. Especially, the ones passed on to us. The gorgeous vintage silk saris.

While draping silk sarees, it’s important to understand that the length of the sari and the pallu is important. Too long of either and your saree is sweeping the floor. Silk sarees are expensive and prone to damage and the worst thing you can do is to leave it dragging on the floor. Wouldn’t you agree my friends ?

Follow these 2 easy tip next time you drape your silk saree . It will make a world of difference.

1. When draping, make sure the bottom of the saree is just slightly almost at floor level. Not too low and not too high. Remember, silk sarees are heavy and eventually the drape will come down a bit.
2. When measuring the length of the pallu, bring the fabric to the front and make sure it doesn’t go beyond the knees level or slightly below. This way, your open pallu won’t drag on the floor.


These 2 simple tips will give you a clean look and protects your sarees too.

For This Gudi Padwa’23 | How to give a Five-yard Saree a Nauvari (Nine-yard) Saree look

Posted on by Sareeing Official

The Nauvari saree is a traditional saree that basically traces its origins in Maharashtra.

It is notable for its long length of 9 yards (8.23 meters). A regular saree is 5.5 meters or 6 meters long, but a Nauvari saree is 8 meters long or longer.
Maharashtrian saree types are popular for traditional occasions such as festivals and weddings. Because Maharashtra’s history focuses on warriors, and brides (called “Navri” in Marathi) thus they wear “Nauvari Saree”, a dhoti-style saree.
Traditional Marathi saree styles include the Kasta style and the Nauvari saree drapes. Slight distinctions in draping distinguish Maharashtrian saree kinds and draping techniques worn as part of Maharashtrian culture heritage. At traditional Maharashtrian weddings, there are several ways to drape a Nauvari saree. But oftentimes it can be tedious for one to drape it whether you are in a rush or you are a newbie to this draping style.

 


The above reel is of shwetasreflection_ig who demonstrated a hack on how to drape a five-yard saree into a Nauvari style. 

  • Take a saree of your choice and then divide it proportionally on both sides.
  • Now take the saree’s inner piece and wrap it around your waist in the rear, then pull the end from the front to the right side, tying a solid knot.
  • Take the left side of the saree containing the border and make pleats and arrange them neatly. After this take this section and pull to the back and tuck it inside the wrapped portion. 
  • Similarly, with the other portion of the saree that contains the Pallu, make pleats on it and make a wrap-around giving a loop effect. Now pull that side on the front and with the formed pleats rest the pallu on your shoulder.
  • And yes you have achieved a Nauvari-style drape. Secure the pleats with safety pins if it is necessary. 

 

At the very least, give this technique a shot to see if you can perfect it.

Easy Hack to MEASURE bangle size.

Here’s is one of the most useful and interesting post from Sandhya Ayyar

Sharing as it posted by her :

Nothing like perfect fitting bangles. The ones that glide in your hands smoothly are my favorite. This only happens when you know your correct bangle size. Many of us still wonder if our bangle sizes are 2.4 or 2.6. Well, here’s an easy hack to tackle that issue. Also, if you have growing kids that you need to boy bangles for, this hack may be helpful. It’s effortless and simple.

Follow these steps next time you put on/remove tight bangles🥻

What you will need.
A Marker/ Pen or sketch pen and a ruler. That’s it !

Follow the simple instructions in the video to figure out bangle size.

Note :
Be sure rest your hand on a flat surface. Fingers shouldn’t be stretched out, just placed normally. Be sure to mark the center of the knuckles of your pinkie finger and the index finger. If your hand is a bit contoured, when measuring with ruler be sure to start at the first point and gently bend ruler at center to reach other point ( as shown in video). Bangle sizes are usually even numbers like 2.2, 2.4 etc. if your ruler measurement is between 2.2 and 2.4 – go for the bigger number. This is basically the inner diameter of your bangle.

I hope you try this. If you found this useful, SAVE & SHARE them with your friends or TAG someone you know that can benefit from this.
