United through the guidance of our India team, small groups of women from urban slums in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh work in their homes to learn simple techniques to fashion jewelry and home décor with upcycled saris and other recycled materials. Because of the patriarchal culture, most of the women are confined to their homes with family responsibilities. The training and income provided by this craft empowers them financially and strengthens their confidence and support for their families and community.
Stimulate imagination and creativity with fun, wearable styles handcrafted from vibrant, upcycled textiles! This fun and floaty Sari Veil features assorted sheer sari textiles and a soft, stretchy headband.
- DIMENSIONS: Fits 16-21" head; 21" L veiL

Please note: due to the upcycled nature of this item, it comes in assorted colors and patterns based on the saris available to our artisans. Whatever pattern you receive will be one that DOES GOOD in the life of someone in need in India who has handcrafted it for you! Enjoy the surprise!
Saris have been present in Indian culture and imagery for thousands of years. Hindu goddesses of beauty, knowledge and power are depicted draped in the colorful garments, and women throughout India wear saris for many occasions. Upcycling saris reincarnates these beautiful fabrics into eco-chic fashion accessories while empowering women artisans to build sustainable livelihoods and communities.
