The Essential Guide to Choosing the Perfect Rakhi for Rakshabandhan

🪢 Rakshabandhan: Love. Drama. Ties that Bind.

Ah, Rakshabandhan — the one day siblings stop roasting each other long enough to tie a thread and call it love. At Say it with a Pin, we’re here to celebrate that complicated, chaotic, can’t-live-without-you kind of bond — with rakhis that speak fluent emotion and sarcasm.

No clichés. No boring moli threads. Just vibes. And wood. And a lot of you’re-my-person-even-though-you’re-annoying energy.

🌼 What's a Rakhi, Really?

Traditionally, it’s a thread. Spiritually, it’s emotional blackmail wrapped in cuteness.

A sister ties it on a brother’s wrist. Wishes for his wellbeing. He promises to protect her. She promises to not leak his childhood photos. Everyone cries. Gifts are exchanged. And the bond? Stronger than your WiFi.


🧵 Our Kinda Rakhis (AKA, Not Your Nani’s Stuff)

Here at Say it with a Pin, we reimagined the rakhi — turned up the sass, turned down the stereotypes, and added a bit of paint, pun, and pure handcrafted chaos.


💜 BFF Rakhis

Not all rakhis are for brothers. Some are for that one person who’s seen you ugly cry, shared fries, and lied for you in front of your mom.
Think Senti-Mental, Chai-Biscuit, Bread-Butter, Extra-Ordinary.
Because best friends deserve threads too.

Eternal Rakhis

For the bonds that don’t shout, but stay. For that quiet love, the dependable shoulder, the one who’s always just… there.
Wooden. Wholesome. Wow-worthy.
Think Jumpy, Marigold, Arctic Fluff, Vibrant Flower.

🎁 Gifts That Slap (In a Good Way)

Tired of gifting the same ol’ kaju katli? Same.
Try this instead:

  • Hand-painted fridge magnets (tiny art, big flex)
  • DIY sculpture or magnet kits (paint outside the lines)
  • Sass-laced poetry blocks
  • Brand kits for siblings who work too much
  • Coasters with character
  • Or just… get one of everything (you chaotic legend)

Bonus: Every gift says you tried… and succeeded.

Stuck in different cities? No problem.
We ship. We wrap. We write your emotional messages if you get cold feet.
Add a rakhi, toss in a gift, ship some hugs. Boom. You’re the favorite sibling again.
