Haitian Green Bead & Leather Necklace
How can beads in many colors be called green? These beads were made from 100% recycled fabric waist. They are an innovative use of fabric scrap that looks and feels different than anything you’ve seen before. Lightweight and textural, this beaded necklace is handmade in Haiti by women trained and economically empowered by Haitian Creations, an enterprise project of Heartline Ministries. This necklace combines the fabric beads and a leather ribbon.
Haitian Creations is about building empowering relationships with the women in their programs. Women who have completed the sewing and beading program have the option of staying on after training to make jewelry for export. Haitian Creations is a program of Heartline Ministries, an organization serving in Haiti for over 20 years.
