Bound no.82
We are Amanda & Amanda (we know, it confuses us too!), two friends who bonded over a love for home décor, home styling and perhaps most importantly, a shared interest in the creative skills needed to produce outstanding hand-made items. We both have creative backgrounds; one of us in interior & retail styling and the other in textile design, both have a love for photography, so creating Bound No.82 came naturally to us. As mothers of three independent, fun-loving and confident daughters, it was important to us that the direction we took set an example to our girls and it makes us proud that the work we do contributes to the empowerment of women to earn an independent living and to celebrate their skilled heritage.

POWDER
We started Powder because we were struggling to find effective beauty products which made us feel good about ourselves, and we were underwhelmed by what’s available in the local market. So, we searched high and low to bring together a selection of products which remedy our flaws and enhance rather than conceal our natural beauty.

Ceramics by BiZ. B and Z are the initials of our names and “biz” means “us” in our language. All our products are made by us, Ceramics by BiZ. We love to create unique ceramic items, totally hand made, using potters wheel or hand built. We give our love to each item starting from design to glazing and do our best to make them beautiful, functional and unique. It is the biggest happiness for us when we see our products are being used and truly enjoyed.

The trademarks of Twisted Roots are its focus on layering while still keeping true to an aesthetic that emphasises on clean lines, elegant silhouettes and luxurious fabrics.

Lokal of the month
Mleiha
Mleiha, a UNESCO-nominated World Heritage Site in the Central Region of the Sharjah map, is home to a number of significant sites, including Bronze Age tombs and pre-Islamic forts. Fascinating artifacts and fossils were discovered here, including pottery, iron tools and camel skeletons. The Mleiha Archaeological Centre, which opened in 2016, houses these discoveries and even more artifacts that uncover ancient UAE history.
The centre also offers a range of tours and activities. You can explore the archaeological sites or venture into the sand dunes with a desert safari. Alternatively, you can also try other desert adventures like riding a quad bike or dune buggy over the sand. If you prefer to go on foot, consider trekking to Camel Rock for an expansive view of the desert. The surrounding area is a beautiful location for a desert camp on soft dunes and under glittering night stars.
