Our Bamboo Chenille Boas are cute ornamental scarves with fringes all the way around!
3” x 62” with 2-3” fringes
NOTE: Take a look at the color ways available in our bamboo scarves section and note the color combination you would like in the comments section of your order. Thank you!
Our scarves are gorgeous, comfortable, of the highest quality, and affordable. They drape beautifully. Suitable for wearing as an outdoor winter scarf or indoor ornamental scarf. They are colorfast and the chenille will not rub off onto your clothing.
The process of making a scarf is labor intensive. The 100% bamboo chenille is wound into skeins on a hand-powered machine, then hand-dyed with dyes imported from the US. The yarn is then warped onto a warping board. The scarf is then handwoven on a traditional backstrap loom, a process which often takes a full day of work. The chenille is made from sustainably-grown organic bamboo thread in China.
Product Care
Hand wash in cold water with mild soap such as hair or baby shampoo, lay flat until almost dry, then “fluff up” briefly (three minutes) with a fabric softener sheet in a dryer set on low-heat gentle.
Always use fabric softener and minimize agitation and heat. Agitation will eventually remove the pile from the chenille and the tassels, and tangle the tassels. Heat could shrink your item.
For creases or a too-worn look, freshen up by spritzing with water and drying as above. Or hang in a steamy bathroom.
The fabric has already been washed by hand and dried as above, in Guatemala.
Or you may professionally dry clean your scarf.
Beautiful beaded dreamcatcher.
Dreamcatchers were created by Native American and First Nations cultures, including the Ojibwe tribe, to protect sleeping children and others from bad dreams, evil spirits, and nightmares. Meant to replicate a spider's web, the idea was that negative energy would be caught in the web and not allowed to enter the sleeper's dreams.
7" long x 3 3/4" wide with 2" long beaded loop.

Blue, Green and White Lola Beaded Bracelet
$12.00 USD
Unit price perBlue, Green and White Lola Beaded Bracelet
$12.00 USD
Unit price perOur beaded bracelets are handmade by Maya women artisans using the highest quality Czech glass beads and crystals, and durable professional beading thread. Czech glass beads, when viewed under a microscope, refract light in complicated ways, leading them to be quite vibrant. They are durable, colorfast, and smooth.
Our bracelets close easily with a toggle closure: one end has beaded loops and the other a T-shaped piece that slips into one of the loops, depending on how tight or loose you would like the bracelet to be. All very sturdy!
Beading in Guatemala expanded greatly after a beading artist came from California several decades ago and started a beading group in Santiago Atitlán, training the women to make high quality beaded items. She still has a Fair Trade beading group and a number of the women who worked with her have started their own groups. Now there is so much beading done in Guatemala that there are bead importers and wholesalers in Guatemala City.
