Sashka Co. Glass-beaded Bracelets


Scrolling through my social media account I kept coming across the Sashka Co. glass beaded bracelets, so one day I decided to check them out. Upon light research I read that these glass bracelets are handcrafted “with love by artisans in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal.” These bracelets are fair trade; “Fair trade is best known for producer getting a fair price for their goods.” I like how over 70% of the profits that they make from these glass bracelets go back to Nepal. This fair trade “partners are focused on gender equality and empowering women.” I like that, so I decided to purchase some of their bracelets to support this cause.

Info cards and a sticker sent with my purchase
On their site, they have so many beautifully crafted bracelets (and a fair amount of earrings and necklaces as well). Each of their bracelets are carefully handmade bead by bead by the artisans in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal. There are so many different styles to choose from that I decided to go with some mystery bracelets for them to surprise me with. The ones that I received are beautiful and I couldn’t have chosen better for myself, although I can see myself purchasing more in the future. They are gorgeous, and it goes to a good cause- can’t go wrong with that!
My Mystery Bracelets revealed!
Shipping was fast (FREE SHIPPING all orders $25+ and it shipped from Florida to Hawai'i for me). The bracelets got to me within a week and I like how they sent me several emails, one was to thank me for my purchase, another was to let me know that my purchase was shipped off and lastly a final notice to inform me that my purchase was delivered! And when I got home they were waiting for me…in a little bag with their logo decorating the outside.  Each bracelet was placed in its own transparent blue bag with an information card.
At first the bracelets were a bit difficult to roll on, however they did claim that one size fits all and that you just have to keep rolling the bracelets over your hand and they will adjust to a perfect fit for your wrist…and they were right. Once they stretched over your hand they fit perfectly on your wrist. Plus, there is lifetime warranty on these bracelets; if your bracelet breaks, they will replace it. That’s nice. 😊

Mystery Bracelet #1: Solid Deep Brown (currently rocking this one!)
This first bracelet is a solid brown. I am currently wearing it next to my 4Ocean #STOPOVERFISHING bracelet and I love how it pairs well with it! 
Mystery Bracelet #2: White Bracelet with Pink and Purple Accents
Pink is one of my top favorite colors and so I was excited to receive this beautiful white bracelet with pinks and purple accents.

Mystery Bracelet #3: Two-toned Teal Colored with Copper Accents
I was eyeing their Beach Day Collection set and it looks like this mystery bracelet is one from the set! I like is so much…it really does remind me of the ocean. I love the teal and the accents of the copper. Although I LOVE all the bracelets I received, this might be my favorite of the bunch!

Mystery Bracelet #4: Two-toned blue bracelet with breaks of Yellow
The final mystery bracelet is another gorgeous two-toned blue bracelet with breaks of yellow glass beads. Wow, the pattern is so beautiful!

I am very happy and please with my 4 mystery bracelets! I believe that they picked well for me! I can see myself purchasing more in the future as well as purchasing some as a gift for friends! There is a wide variety of patterns that you can choose from and they are all so very beautiful and worth it (in more ways than one!). I am tempted now to look at the earrings and necklaces.
Rocking all 4 bracelets! A bit snug, but I've noticed they loosen up to fit more comfortably the longer you wear them.
If you would like to purchase some for yourself and support this cause please click here to go to their page. Each bracelet is roughly $20-30 (+s/h) each, and there is an option where you can buy them in a set. The mystery bracelet was $14 (+s/h) each and I am happy with the ones that they picked out for me. 
Love my Sashka Co. bracelets!
