Frequently Asked Questions

Loveleen Saxena is an artist, writer, and founder of LOVELEEN® — a Houston-based creative studio specializing in hand-drawn textiles, intentional living products, and slow morning wisdom. She left corporate work in 2016 and has been building a creative practice ever since, from a home studio in suburban Houston, Texas.

Katy, a suburb in Houston, Texas.
Her creative studio and home, where all products are designed, packed, and shipped. The backyard food forest and certified wildlife habitat serve as the creative reset space — some of the deepest insights have come from simply watching birds feast on sunflowers out there.

LOVELEEN® is the creative brand and umbrella for everything Loveleen makes: wearable art like eco-friendly Lenzing Modal scarves, home textiles like organic cotton tea towels and table napkins, mantra-based products, original paintings, journals, and newer offerings like Morning Scribbles and the Slow Morning Collective. Everything is hand-drawn, made in small batches, and carries an intention. One tree is planted for each product you buy, in partnership with non-profit One Tree Planted.

Surrounding yourself with beauty and intention changes things — slowly, quietly, in the best way. Every product starts with a feeling, a mantra, or a moment of stillness. Everything is hand-drawn. Nothing is generic or mass-produced. The work is for the part of you that wants to slow down, even within a full and busy life.

Mass-produced decor is designed to fill a space. Slow living products are designed to change how you move through it. Everything at LOVELEEN® starts with a feeling, a mantra, or a moment of stillness — hand-drawn, made in small batches, never templated. The difference isn't just aesthetic. It's the intention behind the object, and whether it quietly reminds you to pause or transforms your home into a sanctuary or helps you live with intention.

The I AM Mantra Deck is the most popular choice, each deck comes with 30 unique mantras. Yoga teachers, Reiki practitioners, healers and wellness coaches use them in their own practice and with clients. Mantra coasters are a close second, especially for someone who loves a mindful morning ritual. A great add-on is the permission slip notepads. All of these are meaningful, portable, and unlike anything you'd find in a generic gift shop.

Mantra coasters are perfect for a desk — functional, beautiful, and a quiet daily reminder that someone thought of them intentionally. You can pick one based on their personality or what they're like! Permission slip notepads are another favorite for the coworker who needs a little nudge to trust themselves. For a closer colleague, a journal or tea towel feels personal without being too intimate.

Everything at LOVELEEN® qualifies. Scarves are made from eco-friendly Lenzing Modal, linens from organic cotton, paper goods from recycled paper — all shipped carbon neutral with recycled paper packaging. One tree is planted per product sold. The most popular eco-conscious gifts are the Lenzing Modal scarves, organic cotton tea towels, and the recycled paper Imantra decks.

Tea towels, table napkin and placemat sets are among the most gifted housewarming items from LOVELEEN®. They bring color, intention, and personality into a new home immediately. Gift sets — especially the napkins + placemats in a bamboo box — arrive ready to give, no extra wrapping needed.

The I AM Mantra Deck was made for exactly this — a meaningful sympathy gift alternative or post-breakup pick-me-up that gently reminds someone of their own worth. Also consider a journal, a self-love gift bundle, coloring kits or a set of mantra coasters . Many of our clients also pick scarves that align with what they're looking to manifest. One of the bestsellers is the I AM Mantra scarves, which include powerful mantras. It's like a self-love scarf you can hug. These aren't just products; they're permission slips.

Tea towels are consistently the most gifted items for mothers and mothers-in-law — beautiful, useful, and something she'd never quite buy herself. Scarves are the next most popular item (if budget is not an issue). The I AM mantra deck is another favorite, especially for someone who loves a daily ritual or is learning to love herself. If she loves beautiful things around the home, a gift set — napkins and placemats in a bamboo box — arrives ready to give.

Plenty! Bandanas are fun, wearable, and very giftable — especially for a younger woman or teenager. They even come with a coloring card. Trinket dishes are a lovely desk or vanity addition. A Color Me Kit is perfect for a creative niece who loves to make things her own. A journal aligned with her intention for upcoming year, the I AM mantra deck, or a set of mantra coasters are all wonderful for a young woman stepping into her own. Headbands and bookmarks are smaller, more playful options. The intention behind every piece makes even a simple gift feel considered and personal.

A Vintage Collectible or Mini Treasures by Loveleen are the most budget friendly option for an art lover. Original paintings from the Shades of Love series, Unleashed or Unhurried Moments collection are also available for those looking for something truly unique and high-end to hang on a wall.

Journals are a favorite for kids — open enough to doodle, draw, and write freely, not just lined pages for "serious" writing. A Color Me Kit is wonderful for children who love to color and create. Art prints with vibrant, joyful imagery are lovely for a child's room. A bookmark is a sweet, simple gift for a young reader. For a teenager stepping into their own, the I AM mantra deck can be genuinely meaningful.

Something handmade, small-batch, and intentional — which describes everything here. A scarf is especially fitting for someone who doesn't need more stuff but would treasure something truly one-of-a-kind.

LOVELEEN® has also collaborated with organizations focused on upcycling and textile waste reduction — including Magpies & Peacocks, a local Houston studio, and Kapdaa, a UK-based offcut fabric organization. These partnerships reflect a commitment to keeping textiles out of landfills and giving materials a second life.

The most loved products are the Lenzing Modal scarves (especially the Mantra, Shining Star, and Cosmic designs), the "I AM" mantra coaster sets, the I AM affirmation deck, organic cotton tea towels, and intentional journals. Gift sets are especially popular around the holidays.

Materials are chosen intentionally throughout:

• Scarves: 100% Lenzing Modal — eco-friendly, derived from beechwood, incredibly soft and lightweight
• Bandanas: Cotton muslin
• Other accessories: upcycled organic cotton
• Tea towels & table linens: Organic cotton
• Paper goods: Recycled paper or cotton paper
• Packaging: Recycled paper, hemp twine, recycled cotton labels, plant based tape — plastic-minimal
• Shipping: Carbon neutral in kraft paper packaging

Always. Every product is made in small batches. All art is hand-drawn and free-flowing — nothing is templated or mass-produced. When something sells out, it may not return in the same colorway.

Giving back is woven into how the brand operates — not an afterthought. One tree is planted for every product sold. All products are made in small batches to minimize waste. Materials are chosen intentionally: eco-friendly Lenzing Modal, organic cotton, recycled paper, hemp twine. Packaging is plastic-minimal and carbon neutral shipping is standard. The studio in Houston is a Certified Wildlife Habitat — a living commitment to coexisting with nature, not just selling it as an aesthetic.Answer

Journals feature original hand-drawn artwork, each focused on a specific intention. They are hand-signed by Loveleen. Available in lined, blank and dot-grid page formats, they are 5 inch x 8 inch and made from recycled paper. Titles include "Bloom Unapologetically," "I Live in Harmony," "I Am So Grateful," and more. Loved by kids and grown-ups, they are not a generic notebook. They lay flat and don't bleed through so even work well with gel pens.

These are wearable art. Every design is hand-drawn, then printed on 100% Lenzing Modal — one of the most eco-friendly fabrics available. Designs include Mantra, Shining Star, Bloom, Soar High, Abundance (fish and spiral patterns), Cosmic, and more, each available in multiple colorways and various intentions. Many designs are intricate patterns that Loveleen drew in her journal, patterns that took hours to complete. More than scarves — they're daily reminders of how you want to move through the world.

Scarves are all same size: 28 inches x 78inches. Price ranges from approximately $105–$165 depending on the design.

Plenty. Other wearable and accessory options include upcycled scarves (one-of-a-kind, more casual), bandanas, headbands, fabric belts, eyewear cases, upcycled fabric laptop sleeves. For someone who prefers something for their home or desk, mantra coasters, tea towels, journals, and the I AM affirmation deck are all beloved options. There's something here for almost everyone — it's less about the category and more about finding the right intention for the person.

Both are used in the kitchen, but tea towels are typically lighter, more finely woven, and as much decorative as functional — originally used to dry delicate items like china and glassware. LOVELEEN® tea towels are heavier organic cotton, 20" x 30" and available in plain or waffle finish. Each tea towel features vibrant hand-drawn art, so they're a vibrant addition to the kitchen when displayed on an oven handle. They are highly durable, machine washable, color fast and can be used daily. A dish towel tends to be thicker and purely utilitarian. These are the kind you actually want to look at. Our tea towels can be even used as dish towel. And trust us, you won't go back to using the white plaid towels after shopping ours!

Organic cotton tea towels come in both waffle weave and plain weave, in vibrant hand-drawn patterns. Popular designs include Joy of Sunrise, Blooming, I Love Nature, Ocean, Promise of Sunset, Love Birds, and Shining Star. Available as singles or sets of two.

Yes — typically as sets of two. But some designs are also available as Gift ready sets. Popular gift sets include Bold Bloomers, Flower Lovers, Ocean Lovers, Sunset Chasers, and Star Gazers.
