Handmade Recycled Paper Beads - are made in Uganda and come from Outreach Uganda, a nonprofit organization. These unique, colorful beads are made lovingly by Ugandan widows and abandoned wives in the remote villages from recycled paper. Long triangular strips of paper are cut and hand rolled around a needle to form the bead. They are then dipped four times in a sealant, which makes them water resistant and gives the beads their shiny finish. Purchasing these beads helps these hard working women build meaningful lives by feeding their families, sending their children to school, buying needed medicines, overcoming poverty, and save for a home. hot The women receive better than a Fair Trade Price for products. All remaining profits help provide microcredit funding, training, education, and health programs in Uganda. Your purchase makes a difference!
Black Jade - is known as the stone of protection and it's said to be a great tool for allowing self-reflection and self-evaluation.
