Sari Bari: New Bags & Blankets

March 21, 2009

Friends in Kolkata run Sari Bari, a small company devoted to creating lovely handmade throws and bags made from recycled saris. But the eco-focus of the company isn't the only factor to make me smile, the employees of Sari Bari are women who have been exploited in the sex trade and now have the opportunity to make a new life for themselves and their family. Sari Bari is yet another company (like Be Sweet posted earlier in the week) that is creating freedom + dignity for women.


I received a notice last week that new bags and blankets have been posted! There wasn't much left in the blanket section, so I'm sharing a few of my fave bags....
