EMBROIDERED CIRCLES POUCH
$28.00

Handcrafted by artisans in Peru, we think these fun pouches could make great gifts for craft lovers and fashion lovers alike! Designed by artist Jenny Kraus (see her artist bio to learn more), each pouch is embroidered by a talented fair trade crafts-person. Do you love the floral pattern or the circle design more?

I prefer the circle design because I don't like the background color on the flower version. What is the size of each?

Thanks for the question! The flower pattern is 9" x 5" and the circle pattern is 7.5" x 4.5". We'll add this info to product copy.

It really is beautiful and the price is nice too but I don't seriously think that it took some poor 15-year-old girl in Peru only 34 dollars worth of her time to make this plus all the materials and dyes and shipping and whatnot cost a lot more than $34 just for us to even look at it. I love it, but as crazy as it might sound, it should cost more.

Laaaame and overpriced! What's not to love?

Though this is pretty, it's way too expensive, and not unique or clever.

The one thing I would do to improve this is add a simple strap to make it a wristlet. Keep it at the same pricepoint, though.

Not for $34

If included in the catalogue, I would definitely include the "fair trade" comment. Although, this isn't my personal style because it uses wool, it's cute, artsy and hand-made.

Not that great to be $34 plus shipping and handling. Not cute.

I really like them but wouldn't pay that much for a small wristlet.

my Mima has something similar and we have the same style. so as a purchase to share..maybe..it's priced a little on the high side.

These are very cute. I especially like the flowered one, but they are just too expensive. I get that it's for impoverished artists and all, but I could buy the same thing at a local crafts fair for a lot less.

They're lovely and I really love helping fair trade and local craftspeople, but they're WAY too expensive.

Wool is a very common allergy, Offering in other types of fabrics would be a plus.

Thanks for the question, Judith. They are lined. The circle pouch features a black lining and the floral pouch features a blue lining.

I'm not ultra-crazy about the designs... Handmade items are fantastic, but these seem to be a "miss" in my book.

These are very pretty. Not trendy. Good for pen/pencils or makeup.

Love, love, LOVE them both. They look handmade; I like the whole fair trade connection and the colors are gorgeous.

Too pricey for something that looks like it could be bought at a rummage sale.

OK I admit I am a craft geek! Woman's crafts I love to support and I think the price is reasonable.

I think that are beautiful, fairly priced and would make a wonderful gift (to myself also!) I really appreciate the story behind them which is also why I think they are fairly priced.

Tracey

They are really beautiful and would make lovely gifts. Having said that, I knit, crochet and embroider and the price on these is just too high. Perhaps $24 for the circles and $28 for the flowers would be more in line with what people would be willing to spend

I love these! Great that they are make under fair trade practices. They are fairly pricey, but we are so used to cheap products, mass produced in China (and then complain about things being made in China), that we don't have a real understanding of what things actually cost if made individually with sustainable materials. Bravo for potentially offering this!
