Conscious Consumerism on the Rise, The Ultimate in Eco-Chic-Ness
By on March 8th, 2008
Sevya.com offers this fairly traded, naturally block printed cotton quilt…Isn’t is beautiful? Retail price: $89.
Ok, so I was glancing through Natural Home Magazine and found these gorgeous products that are not only fairly traded and organic but work to support women in India! Yes, my love, there is so much here, let’s get our fingers in it…
This beautiful Indian woman is a member of the Gramshree Trust, a collective of women embroiderers in Gujarat, India, who work from their homes and choose their own hours.
Ok, so the ultimate in being eco-chic is holding the concept of beauty and aesthetics as high as women’s rights and fairly traded products. Not only that, it’s handmade with love…That’s really inspiring and I’m here to support it! How about you?
Handmade Gamthi Bedspread from Sevya.com…Love those colors…Price: $200
Cushion covers from Sevya are handwoven with love and are priced at: $25
Let’s empower our underprivileged sisters, give them a voice and self-reliant skills. The world will be a better place for it…
