About Our Products
Thank you for visiting my site !
We offer patchwork, bohemian and hippie clothing with an ethnic-Asian
slant. All these
handmade items are one-off or a few off so you won't be bumping into people
wearing the same
item as you are. Inspired by the rich heritage of Asia, not incorporating them into our
designs would be a waste. Using these materials also ensure that indigenous art is not lost.
We are a family business (basically, it's just my mom and me!) and we
make most of these products
ourselves. Yes, even the jewelry.
We do get some extra hired help occasionally, however, NO child
labour is ever
involved !
We like to make use of hired help when we can, from women around
South East Asia
as we feel that by doing so, it provides women with a means of
livelihood, a form of independence
and an alternative to prostitution. We are a small
business but we believe that every bit
counts in reducing feminized poverty, exclusion and violence.
Occasionally, we also add items made by village artisans we meet
while travelling if
we find them interesting. These artisans depend largely on
their
craft for their living and we
feel
that purchasing from them would support them as well as help
preserve their art and culture.
We do hope you'll enjoy this site and the kynd and earth friendly items
!
Thanks for dropping
by!
