Description

As experienced art class basket weavers we felt the prices we were getting for our work was not enough and did not justify the work we put into weaving. Weaving baskets is alot of hard work and it can take months or even a year to finish a large basket. We were tired and ready to stop weaving! Botswanacraft suggested we form a group and try to market our artworks directly on the internet. We now have 24 women in our group and we are able to sell most of our artworks to collectors from many different countries. We are keen to continue with our weaving skills and if we can find more customers we will allow more women from the community to join the group. Maybe one day we can have the world university of basket making here in Etsha!

Our next goal is for the weavers to purchase shares in the company and to collectively own at least 50% of the company. We can also start trading in baskets made by other weavers outside the group.
