Tribal Treasures from Uganda at Homesense and TK Maxx

Do you remember last year’s goodies from Uganda? HomeSense and TK Maxx are doing it again this Spring with even more unique, hand-crafted tribal homewares sourced and made by remote communities in Western Uganda.

This exclusive range is part of an initiative to help some of the most disadvantaged families increase their incomes so they can afford to send their children to school. TK Maxx and HomeSense have been working in Uganda since 2008 enabling more than 10,000 children to go to school.

Since the sustainable trade project started in 2011, there has been a 40% increase in children finishing primary school education.

The unique Uganda homeware pieces are available from both TK Maxx and HomeSense stores nationwide and online at tkmaxx.com.

There is always not enough storage in this house, so I may get couple of those baskets as well.

And which of the Uganda 2017 products are your favourite?
