I just got my basket and absolutely love it. I want more! I think it is a great thing that you are doing, and I have to believe that the women that make them are directly benefiting from the baskets they make. Thanks again, and now I must shop. Beth
I just received a Zulu palm basket. I am more than pleased. It is absolutely beautiful. Alice
