“Who made your Clothes?” @fash_rev Are asking us to consider each purchase of Clothing, from your shoes to your underwear........consider what kind of an impact each item has on the Environment, the Makers. 🦋 I began @las_ninas_textiles in 1997 because I was unsatisfied with the way the Australian “Fashion Industry” was going. Endless Chinese products flooding the Market and items available at unrealistic prices after working in the industry for 20 years this was evident. I searched for “real clothes” I would be happy to wear and as I have done since the early 80’s be happy to sell. There is enough information for everyone to consider better options for your clothing. Wouldn’t you rather 20 items of incredible clothing than a wardrobe full of “Fast Fashion” This back strap loom piece is now sold but I’ll be off sourcing some more next week so stay tuned. Don’t forget to consider #whomadeyourclothes 🦋
May all the Saints and Angels in the world as we know it take care of my dear Countrymen today as the Bush burns out of control all over our Country. And our politicians sit in their Glass Towers in denial. Forgive me for my strong worlds on this medium but it’s time to open your eyes & heart @scottmorrisonmp your Country is in deep trouble. 🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼 A todos xxxx
The view from here as I get on and off all kinds of Transport to collect orders from my suppliers. The view from the front seat of a “Chicken Bus” as the one that just past spews it’s smoke into the lungs and eyes of the conductor who’s drumming up clients out front of the Bus. This is the busiest interchange I will make all day and I have to remind myself to look in the opposite directions that I would normally do as I attempt to cross a crazy busy HGW where if your in the way, your in the way. 🚌🚨🚐 Visiting individual makers and Markets for the past 22 years just fills you with so much respect for the locals and the dangers they encounter in countries that are driven by testosterone not law. My journeys are full of stories from those who know Spanish and wish to talk of heartache and mistrust. That’s why I work with Artisans, that’s why I work with NGO’s when i have free time, those of you who source in Asia I’m sure totall comprehend what I’m talking about 🙏🏼♥️ Sustainable clothing from my Artisans to you, using Cotton that will break down when worn out, can also be cut up to make all kinds of other household products If your just over the item, but as I hear most in my 22 years of working with Artisans in the regret my customers tell me that they gave that Dress away. With love & thanks from Guatemala xxxxxxx
Playing with the kids and the Kites in heaven yesterday. On a massive peak above Panajachel, 🌈🦋🙏🏼 . Each Kite created by a group of enthusiasts that travel around Guatemala exhibiting their beautiful creations 🙃
Up in the sky with a very special mentor yesterday ♥️@fundamaya @sharonsmartfm xxx Mixing with the movers and shakers in the towns i base myself in, is essential to comprehend what is going on socially for the people I work with. Understanding their lives aside from what the Artisans tell me is invaluable, it allows me the kind of news that furthers my plans and intentions for future visits. Thanks so much Sharon for the wonderful morning yesterday with your other volunteers. ♥️🙏🏼♥️😘 The kites and views as well as the conversations with the locals wonderful xxxxx Take a look at “my stories” for more 🌈kites🌲🦋
Tranquility at the end of a busy day working helps reset the clock and prepare for the nights catch up session communicating with Australia and other colleagues, bc we are both “AWAKE” I say that loosely bc I’m fuelled with rich bars of local hand made chocolate from all the providers just to see which is the most excellent 🙏🏼🙃🍫
