On my radar... Give a little... Aid to Artisans

Are you familiar with Aid to Artisans?

It's an organization that creates economic opportunities for artisan groups from around the world that are faced with severe hardships where the craft traditions are at risk. The website offers featured items for sale made by the skilled artisans from countries all over the world.

Not only is this an amazing organization to support, but the products are absolutely beautiful, so it really kills two birds with one stone - give back to struggling countries and receive a beautiful product.

Here are my 2 faves that caught my eye:
Vessels from Mozambique $55 each
Haiti Etched Hearts $15 for pair (These would make fantastic Valentine's gifts!)
