New Kiva Loans and Finished Bags!!!

 This week has been ALL ABOUT THE Frietas Ruffle Clutch.
And I still have about EIGHT more to make before tomorrow!

Good thing these are my favorite bags to make.
I just love the ruffles all lined up in a row.

Can you find your order?

I've sold 29 bags since November 1st.
You guys are awesome!

This, of course, means that enough money has come in for us to to loan to ANOTHER low income entreprenuer from Uganda.
(The importance of choosing Uganda will come up in an important post next week, so stay tuned)

Meet Clovis

Clovis is 53, married, and hard working.
He has five other family members that live with him in Uganda and he desires to give them the best standard of living he can.
His occupation is a tea farmer and has been in the business for five years.
While his business is growing, he will use the money loaned to him to purchase fertilizers for his tea plantation.

mmmmm... makes me want to go heat up some tea myself.

 Thanks for helping me give to these precious people.
Keep buying bags, so I can keep giving loans!

A Better Life Bag Misfit

In the midst of Freita Ruffle Clutch mayhem, I accidentally put the wrong ruffle and handle on this poor little thing.


I think she still looks cute, and I bet ONE of you out there agrees, so I'm putting her up for sale at a special DISCOUNT PRICE of $17 for my blog and Facebook fans only!
If you want her, she will ship out TODAY (no 12-15 business day wait!) for a $5 shipping fee.
Email me at betterlifebags@gmail.com if you're interested.
She'll go to the first email I get!

Hurry!!
