Welcome to Sunisha Designs, Inc.

We invite you to a enjoy handmade items where embellishments dance, fabrics come to life, and the mere close of a ribbon lends to mystery and suspense in the beholder's eye. Launched by Manisha S. Joshi in October of 2004, our goal was to create unique products that entice the eye. We originally began our company as a new concept in gifting. Too many holidays and special occasions were spent watching beautiful wrapping paper being thrown away. We thought to ourselves, why not create packaging that can be kept as well? Our unique Wine & Gift Bags, CD Wraps and Occasion Cards were thus born. Besides being perfect for birthdays, anniversaries and corporate gifts, they make wonderful hostess gifts and unique event and bridal party favors.

Vintage fabrics, satin ribbons, blooming flowers, hand painted images…there’s no limit to what we can fuse together. All of our products are handmade with brilliant artistry. Our lovely creations are each individual in style, character and taste. Just like you. Years after giving the gift, our unique bags and occasion cards will find many uses. Some of our customers find them so beautiful; our products adorn their boudoirs and mantels. Drugstore paper bags stuffed with tissue paper are so passe. We know you want to do better than that! Fred Astaire knew how to live life when he said, “Do it big, do it right and do it with style.” 

We began designing handbags in March of 2006 when friends and customers kept asking us to create handbags as beautiful and unique as our gift bags. In May, we launched our first collection and we've been on a creative high ever since. All are customizable and we are proud to be Jacksonville's only custom handbag design company. Happiness is being able to design a product that fits your style, way of living and your personality. Our customers love the atmosphere of our one-on-one service and the array of choices they have in choosing a woman's most coveted accessory...a customizable Handbag.

 Parternering with Local Designers:

When we meet someone whose designs or products wow us, they are immediately invited into the Sunisha Designs family. Our collaborations have included Jan Walker who handquilted our fabulous collection of baby quilts and Ola Iyewarun who handweaved baskets. Although we no longer carry their lines of products, we refer to them often and welcome new partnerships. However, artists must believe in the same philosophy we do of creating unique handmade items.

Retail Experience:

We enjoyed a 9-month stint with Fine Flowers in San Marco. It is a wonderful flower and gift boutique just next to the Cake Shop of San Jose. Owners Susan and Aarron were great to work with and our style meshed perfectly with their design asthetics. We loved the experience of playing shop, but customers still beckoned to come to our home studio, so we moved our products back home. We also were lucky to have our products sold at HAVEN in Jacksonville Beach, Pampered & Polished Spa in Arlington and Southside Cellars in the Southside area.

We pride ourselves on three very important aspects of our business:

1. Each of our products are one-of-a-kind. We only carry 1-3 yards of each fabric so that you walk away with an item no one else has.
2. We custom design our products at no extra cost and go the extra mile finding the most unique accessories and embellishments.
3. We are the only "home boutique" in Jacksonville where you can enjoy tea, coffee and something sweet while shopping. We believe hospitality and customer relations go hand in hand.

Our company name, "Sunisha" stems from our designer's first name, Manisha and her husband's name, Sunil. It is his determination and belief in Manisha that has encouraged her to launch Sunisha Designs and pursue this passion of creating and designing products that we hope, you as our customer, will treasure for years to come.

Customer Care Policy:

We have a fabulous team of seamstresses and we rely on them for a quality check that we realize can often slip through the production process. We want to assure you that we back all of our handbags for three months from the date of purchase with a Customer Care Policy. If there are defects such as seams coming apart or embellishments coming off, we will happily repair or replace your handbag. Please note that evening bags of silks and brocades are not meant for daily use to the supermarket.

We Scotchguard all of our handbags but that may not protect your precious tote from a downpour after a dinner party. To care for your bag, spot clean it immediately if it comes in contact with any liquids or stains. Do not throw them into the washer or dryer unless instructed by us - although a handbag may be cotton on the outside, the silk lining may not make it through the wash cycle.
