Glad that you loved the post. Our Udaipur trip in 2018 has remained the best trip we made since we got married. In fact, even better than our honeymoon trip. The city of Udaipur has a character of its own and perfect for honeymooners and couples. This facility tour was always on my mind and we pre-booked the tour to ensure we get a private tour of the facility. To be honest, I did a cycling tour of the city couple of hours before this visit (there’s a dedicated link to that post) and I was completely exhausted. This facility is on the outskirts of the city. I was trying to keep myself sane. However, the moment we interacted with the artisans I was fully engaged to know the process. Sarah took control of the camera and all credit to her she did a fine job.

I enjoyed this post very much. Although I don’t anymore, from the time I was 12 years old, I made all my own clothes, and as a young adult all sorts of furniture covers and curtains. I’ve always loved learning about different fabrics and the processes through which they are created. This is a very special post. Thanks for sending me the link. Hugs.

When you see the block printing happening in real you will be in awe at how precise these artists (I won’t call them labourers) are in placing that block on the cloth. It takes years of practice and skill to do what they do. I was in Jaipur last week so more blogs coming up on Jaipur travel and artists. If you want to read that stay subscribed to my blog so you get the update in your email. It won’t be this month, but the posts will come up soon. I have so much content and images to sort and write. Thank you for reading my post and visiting my site. There are more posts on Udaipur on my blog already so do read those as well. Take care Monica. Stay safe.

Sure. However, I think Udaipur is a place that you should experience with your husband. You can feel the romantic vibe in the air when you are in Udaipur.

I’d love to come along with you and Sarah on a similar trip some time.

I saw this process in a dabu printing YouTube video and from that moment I wanted to cover this. When I was in Udaipur I approached Walk and Pedal Travel Tours for it and thanks to Pushpendra who made it possible for me. It was a great experience meeting rural artisans and workers and interacting with them so closely. Sarah was behind the camera but she also enjoyed the process. I wanted to cover this because there is not much content about daboo printing on Google. After visiting the facility the only challenge for me was how I can add so much content in one post. I wanted to make this interesting and not boring because there are no landscapes and eye-catching pictures to engage the audience. I’m glad you liked the post. Thanks for dropping by, Dan.

Labor intensive, for sure, but I can see how it would be hard to replicate the quality. It’s sad that we often settle for something close and inexpensive, but it’s nice to know that there are people who still know how to do this.

You did a wonderful job of walking us through the process.
