    My sister your organization is wonderful ❤️. Please have the works place clothes or 😷 over the face to protect their lungs from inhaling powdered glass.

    I've just bought 2 bracelets from an African dude who's been collecting money for an African school. One of my friends explained how the beads are made and I wanted to see the whole process. It's really amazing.

    Wonderful!!! no wonder these beads each have its very own character!!!Passing through so many diligent hands using the most basic of tools, each bead speaks for itself!!Now that is where I would love to work every day of my life , outside under some cover from the sun, along side equally lovely people working with their hands. No heavy machines, but created by hand. God bless each of those creative people, and each bead the make!

    I am a bead maker and the lack of protection for the workers is alarming. The dust from the powdered glass will permanently damage your lungs, lovely beads but at what cost to your health.

      Immediately shocking to anyone that works with glass! The investment (mold material) floats in the air and is like breathing ground glass. The powdered glass itself is also incredibly bad for lungs and eyes. Pounding those bottles into powder with no safety goggles or mask is crazy.

      Please make sure all the people working in the whole area near the pounding glass wear safety eye goggles, and a mask.

    This is amazing since I always use recycled glass beads from Ghana, but I agree I think these workers should be provided with masks and better protection. Overtime that powdered glass will ruin their lungs.
