If so, you have to listen to my short story! https://theshoeproject.online/covids/valentina-pinzon...

I shared my story and explained how our business has handled this pandemic to try to support our artisans that are facing a very difficult situation. Is only 2 mins long, please LISTEN TO MY STORY!

We are IndiArts Collective! But, what does this name means? Indi: indigenous Arts: arts Collective: Group... We offer indigenous art, traditional inspired work handmade with love by groups of artisans in South America!

It's never too late to ADAPT, LEARN and DO THE WORK needed to achieve what you want. This year has been challenging for most people. Due to majority of markets been cancelled, my business was have to ADAPT and enter the online world. There is something about the unknown that often seems scary, too complicated and not possible. That’s why determination and the willingness to put in the work to learn is crucial to make this unfamiliar more familiar. For the longest time, t...his is how I felt about selling online Now I know that although it takes A LOT of work, IT IS POSSIBLE! We are not great at this yet, but, we are much better than we used to be. I celebrate every victory always, as these prove that we are on the right path to the beginning of something greater.

The secret to understanding the value of handmade ethnic (Cultural) products is to know the great amount of work and talent needed to make each piece. Also, knowing the meaning linked to each product and the great impact each purchase has on the artisans' community IS KEY. These products don’t need a brand to be special as THESE ARE ALREADY SPECIAL! Their uniqueness, quality, symbolism and beautiful energy used to make each piece is always there for those who are open and i...nterested to feel its magic and recharge with the power of ancestral energy and knowledge. Did you know that most of the mochilas you find in the market nowadays don’t hold any meaning? We thought this was too bad, and although mochilas are beautiful and special bags; the storytelling that shares Wayuu culture and supports its preservation is also a very important aspect of the making of these bags. For this reason, we created our NEW COLLECTION of Wayuu traditional and symbolic designs: Ancestral Wayuu. Have you checked it out?
