Artists for Hope

I haven't left the house for several days and I felt like shopping. One of my favorite places to shop is Artists for Hope. My first purchase from them was a beautiful necklace and earrings. I wear them all of the time. Today I bought baskets made by 81 year old Madame La Rousse Jn. Pierre. This basket is made from a very special weaving technique that isn’t used very often in Haiti anymore because it is very difficult. You can read more about this amazing woman at http://artistsforhope.blogspot.com/2010/10/madame-la-rousse-jn-pierre.html
Or if you click on any of the pictures you will go directly to the shopping page. Enjoy!





Here is a picture of the baskets at MY house!
