Like many of you in your parts of the world, I’m doing most of my Christmas shopping online this year. There are several reasons for this. I live in Spain where COVID-19 restrictions are still strongly enforced. I also much prefer browsing on my laptop, while lounging on my comfy couch in my cozy pajamas, than braving the busy and crowded stores at the mall.
But, what if I could do more? What if I could shop online from my own home, purchase beautiful, handmade, ethical, fair-trade gifts, and make a difference in a woman’s life on the other side of the globe?
It’s a win-win for everyone—the buyer, the receiver, and the artisan!
Are you ready to shop ethically this Christmas?
If you don’t know what ethical fashion means, here’s a story I posted recently.
What Difference Does Ethical Fashion Make?
“Everything you buy either has a positive or negative impact on the world. Everything has a supply chain, and every supply chain has real people behind it. If the price tag of an item is too low, there’s a high chance someone along the way wasn’t paid or treated fairly. A decade ago, few consumers gave this a second thought.
We collaborate with some of the most skilled artisans around the world by providing them with dignified job opportunities and giving them access to the global market. Paying fair and sustainable wages to our artisans is just the beginning of what we do. We believe in providing safe and joyful working conditions, a family-like atmosphere, and an environment where every artisan feels known. We believe quality work is a result of artisans who are being cared for as individuals. In a nutshell, we believe how your stuff is made matters.”
