Working with more than 100 individual carvers in Machakos, Kenya, these African handicrafts are primarily made of wood. Carving is a tradition in Kenya with the children learning the craft from their parents. Carved by hand using only rudimentary hand tools, olive wood bowls, salad serving sets, and animal-shaped napkin rings take shape from pieces of olive wood, mahogany, and mpingo, or "African Ebony".


An integral part of the organization's function is to educate the craftspeople on the need for reforestation to enable the products to be available for years to come and offer a sustainable income for generations. While wood carving provides the major income for many in the Machakos area, other craftspeople earn a living by further enhancing the products including painting the napkin rings.

 

Their mission is to offer income-generating opportunities to craftspeople in developing countries by following fair trade practices including paying in advance at least the market price for items, ensuring that craftspeople receive payment, and ensuring that the craftspeople work in fair working conditions. They work directly with artisans, craftspeople, and producer groups to achieve these goals and hopefully help improve the lives of some of the people with whom we share this planet.

Adorable but Run Very Small!
Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Pearly Pink
These run very small. I was advised by my sister before ordering that Mini Melissa runs small; however, my daughter is a size 11 or 11.5 and since these run in whole sizes I couldn’t imagine ordering a 12! I would think a size 12 would be a range of shoe sizes 12 to 13. They arrived in time for an event we needed them for but were way too short in length so unfortunately they were returned. They are lovely, adorable, comfortable shoes but run very very small.
