Zulu Wire Deep Funnel Bowl: Fair Trade and Hand-Woven

First to recommend

Description

Men of the zulu tribe have started weaving baskets out of a most unusual material: telephone wire. This tradition was apparently started by men working the nightshift at factories as a way to utilize the recycled wire that was essentially trash. It has now become quite an art, and the Fair Trade sale of these beautiful bowls helps Zulu men stay on their tribal land instead of having to migrate away to cities to look for work. Amazing!!

Eco-Friendly, Hip. Trendy and Modern Diaper Bags for Dad

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

This bag was just too cool to leave off my list. It's not the most-eco-friendly material in the world, but it is PVC-free and Teflon-free. And any item that helps dad's get more involved with Baby makes our planet a better place, don't you think?
