  • what a fabulous idea, that blue and green shirt is lovely - something like that i would love. thanks for helping us support them!
  • hi eric! this is an awesome thing to do.
    I really like the brown and white bag (with the grid and star-ish designs) and the blue and white skirt at the top (in whatever colors).
    thanks!
  • Awesome. Thanks, guys. I also got half a dozen orders by email, and people forwarding this message on to their friends, so I'm going to have quite the order. But I'm leaving all the computer gear I bought here, so I have plenty of space for stuff to bring back. I'll be a bona fide smuggler, if the orders keep coming in :)

  • No problem, Dan.
  • Hey Eric,
    This is AWESOME! I'd like a wrap skirt like the one in the picture to give to my wife. The blue and white fabirc with the mandala star is sweet, if you have to go with a different fabric/pattern that would be fine.


    See you at the tower soon.

  • Gotcha, Benji. You all should have seen the ladies' faces, yesterday, when I rolled in with my order. I think I cleared out a third of the showroom :)
  • I would love a bracelet, something with black maybe. (get the smallest one you can find) Also those baskets with the lids are super handy. I had a few from Kenya that I loved that got lost in one of my many moves..oh and I would love a scarf too!
  • oh, and thanks for offering to bring back such beautiful crafts for such a good cause.
