We've been in the bead business for years, and are so worn down and
tired from an overly-saturated market. When my husband, who is from
India, took me on my first buying trip 2 years ago, I found all of these
fabulous items that I needed to bring home and share with the US market
(sari borders, harem pants, beaded slippers, to name a few). Slowly we
started growing our offerings, to include the antique African cloths,
more handicrafts from India and Nepal, Thai accessories.....and it's
ballooned from there.
We now offer dog leashes handmade from vintage recycled saris, that give
Nepalese women fair wages and independence.
Embroidered garden and sun
umbrellas from Rajasthan india, Kantha quilts and bags made from vintage
Indian fabrics.
Decorations from camels (pom-poms, camel blankets, their neck and ankle bells).
Coming soon: sandals and boots made from vintage Thai Hmong textiles.
It's a world of handmade fabulousness, all under one tent.
