World Fair Trade Day & Mother's Day - Coincidental?

This weekend will be busy - and for good reason!

We're gearing up for this Friday's (May 7) World Fair Trade Day festivities in Chicago (Daley Plaza) which allows Chicagoans to celebrate fair trade with more than 80 countries around the world!

Although World Fair Trade Day officially is on Saturday, May 8, we decided we're going to celebrate the entire weekend.

Then, of course, Sunday is Mother's Day and what better way to celebrate than by sharing a fair trade gift with the women who have helped you along the way?

Featured here is our popular Calla Lilly Earrings which is flattering to any woman. The set is handmade by artisans in South Africa using copper and brass. You can find it by clicking here.

Supporting fair trade is more than just buying stuff ... it's about making a conscious decision that when you will buy something, whether it's a gift for your mom, girlfriend, graduate, or sibling, that you consider the power your money has and choose an item that will make a difference in the lives of others.

And, with more and more fashion-forward fair trade products in the marketplace today, you can find a host of gorgeous options from which to choose!

To make it even easier to support fair trade this World Fair Trade Day & Mother's Day, enjoy free shipping on all orders of $10 or more when you enter May10 in the promo section of checkout. GOOD ONLY UNTIL THIS THURSDAY - May 6 and you must enter the promo code to activate the free shipping. Not good on any past orders.

Thank you again for supporting fair trade and mothers everywhere!

Warmly,
