Meet the Artisans

Walking into the Kathmandu production center’s reception you are immediately greeted by a cheerful ‘Namaste’ (‘I Salute the God Within You’) with hands pressed together in a prayerful expression. Proceeding into any of the production halls you’ll be greeted by a complete chorus of the same as dozens of ladies press felt into a variety of shapes, while others stitch, needle and applique to finish hundreds of different styles of decorative items for export.

Sheep’s wool is an amazingly adaptable fiber. It can be dyed any color and when hand felted using warm mildly soapy water it can be molded into any shape, or then cut and sewn together as per your imagination. Because the felting and most of the stitching process is all done by hand with natural materials that can be sustainably harvested, hand felted products have a relatively soft impact on the environment. Commercial exports of felted products from Nepal have grown exponentially since around 2000, benefitting thousands of mostly women workers, production managers and family businesses who help support their families and educate their children with their earnings.

Felt Birds

I have a 6 foot iron realistic looking tree that I love. I decorate it for various holidays. The felt birds were perfect for my “summer” tree!

Beautifully made bird ornament!

I bought this ornament as a gift for my son's kindergarten teacher who loves hummingbirds. I was so impressed when I opened the package. The pictures do not even do it justice! It is beautifully made and I know she will love it! And I love giving a gift like this that gives both ways!!

Thank you so much LeeAnne for your continued support of the fair trade movement and for living your ideals and allowing your hard earned money make the most impact towards helping others in developing nations. You have an unwavering spiritual calling to help others. May God Bless You. Thank you LeeAnne!!!

Super Birdhouse

The most original and creative birdhouse I've seen in some time. It was exactly as I expected, exactly as it was shown. For a lover of birdhouses, this is a most unique addition. Ordering was easy, delivery was quick, and the entire transaction was the way you wish all online transactions would go, but most often don't. Thank you

Thank you so much Our Birds Love Woolies for your outstanding review of our felt wool birdhouses! I adore them as well and actually bought two last year as Christmas presents and intend to buy more this year too! All handmade, they each have characteristics that are uniquely their own, as no two are exactly alike! I am so pleased that your transaction with us exceeded your expectations, as without our customers our fair trade endeavors would cease to exist! Thank you so much for joining us on our mission of fair trade and thank you again for shopping with us! I do hope to see you again soon! - Michele Adams/Shopkeeper
