This tray is unique not just for its eye catching design and colors- but's b/c it's made from blue pottery (a traditional craft from Jaipur, Rajastan in India) AND it makes the most fabulous present (b/c it's got so many potential uses!)
Gift it with a fragrant bar of soap (soap dish)
Pair it with dangly earrings (catchall for your vanity)
Give it with a lovely scented candle and decorative matches (it can hold the matches!)
Fill it with chocolates (it's a candy dish), and on and on..... ]
Natural Habitat Company is beloved by so many vendors because they make such a wide range of attractive, well made products. A husband and wife team whose company is based in Massachusetts, Mike and Shalia note that their company has the main objectives of supporting cottage industries in Shalia's home country of India, using natural fibers and handwork, producing goods in as ecological friendly a manner as possible.
(It's pretty awesome having their warehouse half an hour away from our home, too!)
Shaila developed a passion for Indian textiles when, as a child, she travelled with her mother throughout her home country to observe these great craftsmen at work. This rich history and the enthusiasm of the craftsmen producing these textiles inspired Shaila and her husband Mike to start Natural Habitat. They focus on supporting cottage industries, using natural fibers and being ecologically responsible. We are huge fans of their beautiful quilts, pillows and accessories, their emphasis on handmade items, and Shaila and Mike themselves (and the fact that their warehouse is a mere 30 minutes from our house!)
