Product Find: Gift Packs Made by Natural Nigerian

 

No Nigerian wedding is complete without take-home gift packs. The gifts are usually given to the guests from the couple, their relatives and friends. The usual pack contains fans, buckets, plastic bowls, scented candles, note books etc. 

Well, Natural Nigerian has put a new twist to our tradition. Instead of getting stuff you might keep and never use, she packaged oils, butters, shirts,bags and other items you are bound to fully appreciate.

My little artist is at it again...

Table Mat

Beads,Cutter &Fishing Line

She made this key holders as well

    Thanks to her Arts teacher,my 13 year old sister makes these things with ease.Her holidays never end without her being productive. Buy her all the materials she needs and you might not hear from her for hours. 

She used the pin in the pic. below and three threads to make it thick.

My little sister is always doing something with her hands. She's either knitting, making a bowl with beads, key holders,painting a picture, drawing,sewing, braiding someones hair(preferably a dolls hair)....whatever she finds interesting.  I'm always proud of her creations. She's in her early teens now but at age 6 she could braid her dolls hair (from watching me braid) and knit pot holders better than me. Lets encourage our little ones to develop whatever it is that comes naturally to them. 

Naija Dolls

 So Pretty!!If I had one of these as a child I would  be a queen with head ties.

I'll ask her to try her hands on beanies...Lucky me.
