These bracelets are made of recycled rubber by women in Djenne, Mali. The sales of these bracelets provides these women with viable means of support and are sold to raise funds for L'Empire des Enfants, a school for homeless children in Dakar, Senegal.
There are many Made Wiith Love products available. I however, chose these bracelets to highlight because of a wonderful girl, originally from Senegal, that I am lucky enough to call family. Check out this site and see what you can do to help change one life. MADE WITH LOVE
The Made With Love project is a non-profit organization raising money and awareness to the non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that are helping women and children in need with the production and sale of fair trade indigenous products. Made With Love supports A.S.A.O and the L'Empire des Enfants program which is helping homeless children from Dakar, Senegal by renting and restoring an abandoned local facility in Dakar to create a center providing these children with shelter, meals, education, and training programs.

Tickled Pink Knits
On a day like today, where my car is buried under two feet of snow, I just wanted to snuggle up in something cozy and watch a movie. These amazing wraps by Tickled Pink Knits would be PERFECT to warm up in, (or send as a gift to someone in a much colder place than you*hint hint*) while we face the unfortunate six more weeks of winter!
