The world will change when our girls and our women are educated.” -Maggie Doyne
Amazing things happen when women come together and support each other. That is the core premise – and promise – of the Kopila Valley Women’s Center. We strongly believe in these core values, and are thrilled to partner with The BlinkNow Foundation to offer these one of a kind gifts. These bags were handmade by women artisans in Nepal at the Kopila Valley Women’s Center. Every bag is made with fabric from their own looms or from fabrics purchased from the local market, which produces one-of-a-kind variations and makes them uniquely charming. Purchasing this bag helps provide a dignified job opportunity to female artisans in rural Nepal. These women are inspiring the next generation by showing them that skills and education are the best way to break down social and economic barriers. This lightweight cotton tote is a soft reminder of the stunning results of Slow Design! Behind every stitch in this blue and white striped tote, there is a woman with a story.
Blink Now products are made and designed to represent the joy of everyone who is part of this passionate endeavor. Since 2013 Blink Now has fast become the fiber of this Nepali community, building a sustainable model on education and financial independence that empowers women and families in the Surkhet Valley. This bag is 100% Organic Cotton and measures 12” by 15” with a strap that hangs 12” from the shoulder.

Our Objects from the Natural Worldare inanimate, yet possess the feeling and essence of life, a beautiful contradiction. A dazzling display of colors and texture characterize these big beauties. Serving as a bowl to hold all your small treasures, they are also as a place for reflection and fantasy, like a miniature deep sea garden. One side is covered in 99.9% fine silver through the unique technique of electroforming while the other exposes the natural pearlescent of each shell. They range in size from 4”x 6” to 5”x7” and are roughly 1 ½” to 2 ½” deep. Each Abalone Shell comes with a bundle of ceremonial palo santo sticks. “Smudging” is practiced by First Nations and Native Americans to cleanse and purify spaces. This instrument of ceremonies has been embraced by modern spiritual groups and individuals for many reasons. Its sensuous and grounding aroma, draws our attention to the spaces we live in. These two objects together honor the home we have built, and a home given to us, the natural world beyond these walls. Rest the smudge stick in this abalone shell, letting it rest and release.
