It was early this week we learned that over the weekend the gangs descended, looting and stealing from this creative peaceful group of artisans. A group of men working to feed their families.Fortunately not many of the artisans were there at the time and as far as we know, no one was hurt or kidnapped.
We love everything we sell and so will mom! You cant go wrong with jewelry when shopping for mom. Not to mention jewelry always fits.
Our Valley Bracelets are handmade in Haiti by moms. Hand rolled ceramic clay beads are carefully strung providing moms with jobs who are paid a fair and living wage.
PLUS they come on hand stitched cards also from Haiti <3 supporting our friends at Rosie's Boutique.
We are so excited about all of the press our Hope Necklace has been receiving. Like this post in MSN as one of "Best Galentines Day Gifts for All Ages"
I blogged the entire time (well mostly) I was in Haiti and it is such a great record of memories and knowledge for myself. So here I am again, back at computer, ready to bring you all sorts of great stories from Haiti and happenings at Cedar and Cypress, so make sure you subscribe to our newsletter or check back here regularly because along with the stores I hope to have some nuggets of inspiration and wisdom.
