Giving Away A Fab Find For Men

Calling all men! Here is a fantastic new item from Eternal Creation that I have just received fresh from India. Not only is this fabric 100% cotton, like all Eternal Creation clothing, it is Fair Trade. This particular shirt is slim fit and a wonderful mix of blue, green, and brown all tossed together in a vibrant paisley pattern.

At first I noted that the fabric wasn’t extremely soft for 100% cotton, but with a quick wash and dry it turned into a wonderfully soft material. Out of the dryer it had virtually no wrinkles, making it a great on the go option. And the price point was a hit at only $50! Want to win a $50 gift card toward Eternal Creation? Keep reading. This super trendy shirt can be worn on a weekend getaway with loved ones or a night out with the boys.

You might say: who is Eternal Creation? This is a sustainable company born in Dharamsala, in the foothills of the Indian Himalayas. Seventy Tibetan, Nepalese and Indian tailors design and produce clothing in the Himalayan Tailoring Center. Providing the largest employment business in the area, the line has now grown from focusing mostly on woman’s sleepwear and accessories to a much larger company that now sells men’s and children’s wear.

Designer Frances Carrington started this company with a dream and a $5,000 loan that she had received from her father after graduating college. On a volunteer trip to India, Frances became head of the tailoring department at the Norbulingka Institute in Dharamsala and the rest was history. She wanted to stay and use her skills to benefit the local community. Though they started out with very little staff, Eternal Creation is dedicated to growing their workshops rather than outsourcing orders. You know your purchase will assist in improving the lives of recently arrived political refugees by providing jobs, training, health care, and accommodations.
