    Today, we were deeply moved by the generosity of the Nepali artisans we work with, as they hosted a heartfelt celebration during our visit. Earlier this year, we had the privilege of supporting 8 of our artisans with scholarships for their children, and their gratitude today reminded us of the importance of this partnership. At Gry & Sif, we are not only focused on creating beautiful, handmade products but also on making a positive difference in the lives of those who craft them. Here's to empowering futures, one stitch at a time. #GryAndSif #FairTrade #Empowerment #Nepal #Scholarships #Gratitude #HandmadeWithLove World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO)

    We are ecstatic and very honored to share that Gry & Sif is embarking on a meaningful journey, as we are initiating a scholarship program in Nepal. Gry & Sif has contributed with eight scholarships aimed at fostering a brighter future for the children of our artisans in Nepal. This initiative holds a profound significance for Gry & Sif, as it encapsulates our commitment to help ensure a positive development in Nepal. The eight students were collectively chosen to receive the scholarship by the team of artisans in Nepal. The students will receive continuous scholarship support until they complete their studies. Upon their graduation, another scholarship will be donated. Through these scholarships, we aim to empower our artisans so that they can improve their children’s future. We are so excited to follow their journey through the coming years. Gry & Sif has also donated an amount for water tanks, books, blankets and other essentials that they need in the local schools. “It warms my heart to be in a position where our team can contribute with a meaningful impact on the children of our artisans. We strongly believe that the best way to support our artisans in Nepal, is to provide them with opportunities. The positivity and kindness that we receive from our team in Nepal, serve as a powerful source of motivation for our business. We feel incredibly fortunate to be able to help them in any way we can “- Gry Staunstrup, the founder and designer of Gry & Sif. For us, it’s not only about crafting beautiful pieces; it’s about creating opportunities. Beyond crafting exquisite pieces, we strive to create pathways for growth and prosperity. We firmly believe that fair trade begins with empowering individuals within their communities. #businessrevolution #fairtrade

    Gry & Sif 🤍 From wool to art The felting technique is an ancient Nepalese tradition causing the best felt workers in the world to be found in Nepal 🇳🇵. All unique pieces of art in the Gry & Sif collections are handmade in Nepal under Fairtrade certified conditions. All items are made from natural New Zealand wool 🐑. But How? First, the wool is carded into a fine texture that allows us to begin the artwork 🧶. Warm soapy water is added to the wool as we rub the wool into our desired shape, causing the fibres to tighten into a felted textile material 🤍. As the fibres tighten together we begin to shape the form that we want. During the process, the workpiece is wet. Once the shape of the item is as we design it, it is dried in the nepalese sun ☀️. When it is dry the item is decorated with details 🪡🧶. Learn more about our universe of felt at www.gryandsif.com
