Tucked between hipster joints on Burnet Road, Ten Thousand Villages is the ethical shopper's delight. A Fair Trade pioneer, the store features a gorgeous assortment of maker‑to‑market wares, with every handcrafted purchase ensuring a living wage in safe conditions for its maker and empowering communities from Colombia to Cambodia to gain financial independence. A baby blanket made of upcycled saris? Luxe bar accessories? Lamps, pillows, clothing, housewares, ornaments, jewelry, and more? They’ve got you covered. You can even print out the maker's story to enclose with your gift so when Mom opens it, she’ll know she raised you right.
