All the products in these pages are made by poor families from different countries in Africa that work in communities.  They make the handmade papers in order to receive an income that will allow them and their families to have a better standard of living.  If you have any comments or suggestions, please feel free to write us an email.  Also, if you are interest in a custom product please go to our Wholesale page.  Please read below about the origins of these products and the handmade papers.

Each sheet of handmade paper is made from 100% cellulose plant fiber - which is lignin and acid free.  Master paper makers, train villagers in the ancient art of papermaking using simple equipment, which is donated by organizations. They are trained to make paper using indigenous plant fibers that grow wild around their home.

The communities are encouraged to work in their own environments with materials that are replenishible and plentiful near their homes. From the sheet of paper that is made from these materials, talented artists fashion sophisticated products using Traditional African tools like the duri and the guyo that are known to these communities. 

This fledgling new industry has given hope to hundreds of people, mainly women with young families.  By buying these products you will be helping families that need the good heart of everybody in the World to have a better standard of living.  In return you will have a unique high quality product for a very reasonable price that we are sure you will enjoy always.
