Hand Embroidered Ornament Holiday Bundle
Introducing the Hand Embroidered Ornament Holiday Bundle. Each purchase of these ornaments offer a sustainable source of income for the women artisans who make them.
Made by women in vulnerable situations within depressed communities, meaning rural and urban communities that are relatively depressed, in terms of age of housing, extent of poverty, growth of per capita income, extent of unemployment, job lag, or surplus labor. The makers carefully cut a synthetic felt base into shape, and then hand-embroider each ornament’s design with an alpaca blended yarn.
While many are great for festive hangings and trees, some are timeless and can be hung from plants, windows, car mirrors and more. A great addition to gift wrapping as a gift tag as well. They’re sure to bring a bit of joy and hope into your space.
*Also available individually here.
