    Description

    MAYOWN was founded to teach the art of crochet to women living in poverty in the Philippines.  Each doll is handmade with care, providing stable employment to local women in Metro Manila. This bag charm is the "Green Turtle"  It is gender neutral, great both for kids and adults, and easily attaches to purses and bookbags, or can be a standalone keychain.  It measures approximately 5x2x2 inches.
    I have been traveling around the world looking for cute, culturally meaningful gifts to share with others. For months, I was looking forward to my trip to the Philippines to meet with Anneleen, the founder of Mayown.  Anneleen made all the designs herself, while teaching her employees how to bring the dolls to life. I got a chance to meet the team at a local market, hear their stories and their favorite items, and am excited to be a USA partner.  Right now, I only have a very limited set of dolls and bag charms that I brought back directly from the Philippines, but if I can find a market for them here in the US, then I will quickly get a larger quantity and variety.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
