At Collections we’re really into gifts and not just for adults, but for the kids too! We just brought in some super cute finger puppets made in Peru that we’re in love with and that make cheap and cheerful gifts any time of year.
Lucuma Designs is a fair trade company that employs women and moms in Peru on the shores of Lake Titicaca who knit these intricate organic cotton and alpaca wool puppets by hand. Their culture has a rich textile tradition and this opportunity has changed the lives of many enabling them to provide for their families and care for them at the same time. We love supporting businesses like these, especially when they make such cute things! The puppets sell for just $4.50 and the hardest part is choosing which ones to get. There’s animals, mermaids, clowns, insects, you name it! Stop by to check them out. Aloha!
