Decor Story: Pretty vases to grace your space

With an aim to provide home decor enthusiasts through modern, minimalistic decor pieces, Sadia Islam, a fresh graduate of Dhaka University, turned her passion project into an online home decor business named 'The Decor Story' in early 2023.

The Decor Story primarily focuses on offering a wide range of modern, minimal, and trendy decor items that Sadia personally handpicks from the latest trends on social media. 

"I firmly believe that there is immense potential for these types of products in our generation. Nowadays, many of us strive to create a serene and clutter-free environment in our homes, often favouring a white-neutral theme as a backdrop for our decor," said Sadia.

All the products by this brand are imported and ready to ship. As of now, the brand has a total of 15 unique designs of vases.
