About Rainee Collections

From Kitchen Table to Shop Shelves: The Story Behind Rainee Collections & Meera, the founder Before Rainee Collections was even a twinkle in my eye, I’d been hand-making greeting cards for about 20 years, all just to spread a bit of joy to family & friends. Paper has always been a part of my life. My parents ran a photography & printing business, so I grew up surrounded by off-cuts, ink smells & paper stacks taller than me. As a kid, I’d squirrel away scraps of colourful paper to turn them into cards & scrapbooks. Fast forward to 2020, I’d just come off maternity leave with my second & was weighing up whether to go back to the corporate world when covid hit. So instead, I took the leap and launched Rainee Collections. A business built on spreading joy and inspired by the vibrant colours of my south asian heritage. One of the most exciting parts of this journey has been digital illustration. Its opened up a whole new world for my designs & abled me to explore the colours & concepts I grew up surrounded by. What started as handcrafted pieces has now grown into full collections that blend my heritage, hand illustrated charm & a fresh, modern aesthetic. From day one, I knew I wanted to see my products in shops. There’s something especially special about independent retailers. Maybe it’s because I grew up in my parents small business; I love the sense of community, care & character you find in an independent shop.
