Heart of Haiti for the Holidays

Posted | 0 comments

Are you stuck thinking about what to get people for the Holidays? Macy’s Heart of Haiti can help.

A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to be on a call with a Macy’s Heart of Haiti artist Moro Baruk. He and his team make beautiful papier mache earring and carnival masks. He told us that his association with Macy’s has increased the prestige of his bricks and mortar store. It also, probably most importantly, makes his workers proud. The devastating earthquake back in 2010 has made it difficult for Haitians to earn a living. Half of the wholesale price of these products goes back to the artist.

Here are some of the beautiful choices from the Heart of Haiti Collection:

I’m in love with this little owl in case you’re shopping for me ;-)
