Handmade Rugs by Node

I love it when I find beautiful artwork that is associated with an awesome cause. Recently Node teamed up artists from around the world with Nepalese rug makers to make these incredible rug collaborations. The rug makers are founding members of Fair Trade Nepal, where employees receive lessons in literacy and other business skills. Not only that, but their work helps support local schools and orphanages. This is such neat idea. I wish I could purchase a rug right now, as they are pretty pricey. But the money would be well spent, no doubt about that. I love seeing how art can unite people and bridge culture gaps to help those in need. Great cause and incredible rugs.
