It's #NewItemWednesday!
Which would you pick?!? Both are made from paper beads from Kenya with beautiful brass and leather accents.
Lilian heads the Acacia's Creations team of paper bead makers in Kisumu, western Kenya. She oversees up to 100 women in Kenya and Uganda and makes sure that we never run short of recycled paper beads. Each bead is individually cut and rolled from magazine pages ensuring a steady supply of work for these women.
They often gather at her home in Kisumu to roll paper beads together. According to Lilian, the income generated from the millions of beads they've made has completely transformed their lives.
We are so excited for our OWS Week of FUNdraising! happening October 20-23rd!

We can't believe it's been a week already since our Fair Trade Flea! A HUGE thank you to our vendors, a HUGE thank you to our patrons and a HUGE thank you to our community for the out-pour of support.
Because of you we collectively brought in over $6,000 to our vendors / artisans. In a year of uncertainly, those funds mean more than we know. Thank you for all that you do, for shopping your values and creating real impact for those we serve.
