DIY - Cause or Effect ?

In a recent visit to Landmark store in Mumbai I as pleasantly surprised to see a stand dedicated to DIY sewing kits - ranging from threads , fabric glue , pocket patches and whole range of sets to cater to a novice.

Quite fascinating , to see expensive retail space in a time strapped city being dedicated to an activity that essentially requires time and patience.

Wondering if this is cause or effect ? Are people seeking to create things themselves or is this company passionately trying to get people to experience the joy of creation ?

Either way it's a welcome development !
