Home Decorating Home Decor Tropical Decorations
Description
Your purchases on this home decor and gifts site will create a worldwide marketplace for the products of our artisans, ensuring that they can earn a decent living and at the same time preserve their cultural traditions.
Most of our home decorating items are made with RECYCLED materials: the metal comes from used drums that brought chemicals, oil and food in Haiti, the paper and cardboard in our Papier-mâché comes from scraps taken from old cement bags and rejects of cardboard and boxes from factories. Even one of our Caribbean dolls, the push-up doll, is made using a juice plastic bottle thrown in the streets of Port-au-Prince. Instead of going in the sewers of the town and getting stuck there forever, causing inundations at every rainfall, or going to pollute the Caribbean Sea (some have been found all the way to Cuba and Jamaica) they are transformed into what we like to call a small "oeuvre d'art".
The companies that we deal with are members of Fair Trade Organizations and do not use child labor. Often the artisans work from their home or in small workshops in the countryside.
