31Bits Party

On Monday, I had my 31 Bits Party and it was such a blast! A morning spent with girlfriends over coffee and brunchy food while looking at and trying on jewelry is good for my soul.




If you're not familiar with 31 Bits, read about the business here. Here's a quick rundown:

It was started by Katie Dovel after a trip to Uganda in 2007.
She met women making jewelry out of paper beads, but didn't have a way to market and sell them.
After graduating college Katie and a few close friends traveled back to Uganda and selected six women to make and purchase jewelry from.
It has now grown to nearly 100 women making jewelry. Each woman has an amazing story to tell and because of their new successful skill, they are providing for their families and overcoming poverty.
The 31 comes from Proverbs 31 where it describes a diligent woman providing and caring for her family. The bits comes from what the beads are made of...bits of paper!
