How can we make our already popular little girl basket tote better? Add a cute bag tassel! Now it's perfect!
It's time to expand our collection for our Littles! We even added a little girl approved bag tassel. This would make a cute Easter basket that can then transition into a little pool bag! Made of recycled plastic thread, this basket takes a lot of work to create. The artisans of Sueno Canastas start with a form and they hand weave the plastic tread around it. The artisans of Teze Handcrafts create the woolen balls and then handmake the tassels. This basket tote is sure to bring a smile to any little girl's face! Honestly, what little girl wouldn't want a tote?
Dimensions: 7.5 x 6 inches
Sueno means dream and Canasta means basket and this truly is a dream for the artisans to have a job making baskets. This little group with a huge heart from Guatemala is empowering young women and teenagers in their community where finding a job is extremely difficult. What I love is when you empower someone with a job, you light something within them. They start to believe in themselves and they start to dream, dream things are possible. One of their artisan's who is 16 started to believe in herself and is going back to school to finish her education. She is currently at a 2nd grade level. By purchasing a basket, you are giving them an opportunity to make their dreams become a reality.
Teze Handcrafts (Work of Her Hands) work with Azeri woman who live in Georgia. In the Azeri language, hands are frequently spoken of when talking about work. It is an honor to produce something good with your hands. Azeri women work hard inside their households but broken families and economic difficulties often leave them as the primary breadwinners. Teze Handcrafts collaborates with these ladies to enhance and teach skills they can use to work from home. There are currently 10 ladies in this group.
Empowering people. Changing lives.
