The PachaMama Project


The PachaMama project is Australia’s newest online store, offering a truly ethical shopping experience. Developed by husband and wife team Antoine and Natasha, who were inspired by a recent year long visit to South America, the idea behind the project is to support artisans in developing countries generate a sustainable income by making beautiful handmade items. All the products offered on the site are made using natural and organic fibres and materials and are sourced through ethical means. The site is brimming with gorgeous scarves, bags, jewellery and baskets from communities in South America and Africa. Check it out for yourself and pop over to PachaMama!
