Comme Les Fleurs
" Comme Les Fleurs"
A colourful home textile collection.
This new, growing label portrays unique paintings by a late 20th century female artist. The project helps women and their children to strengthen values such as self-confidence and pride, thus helping them to realise their dream of a better future!
" Women are like flowers, children are their seeds"
The colourful paintings donated by a beloved mother, grandmother and family member tell the story of the relationship between mothers and children. Connecting past experiences with the future is a matter of the heart for us and we want to share our story with you. With the purchase of an article from the collection "Comme Les Fleurs" you help mothers suffering from AIDS in Africa to create a better future for their children. As ambassadors of a humanitarian project in South Africa we purchase their handmade bead-bees. These "busy bees" symbolically carry the courage and hope of these hard-working women out into the world.
Forget-Me-Not
The inspiration for this project comes from a small flower, the forget-me-not, myootis sylvatica. We should remember the efforts made by less fortunate women to educate and engage themselves for their children's future. Women are like flowers and we want to help them grow a seed of hope in their hearts. Let's plant a garden of hope.
Ubuntu - Humanity
"Give joy and think of others" is our motivation to create colourful decorative products which give your home a cheerful and colourful face. On the basis of the South-African philosophy "Ubuntu" which means "othering" in terms of taking care of everyone within a community, we invite you purchase one of our articles.
Our Products
All products are made in Germany, from sustainable materials, while supporting women in business. For instance, the bag itself is made of washable cotton while the shiny grey shoulder straps are made from recycled climbing equipment.
Currently we have two different collections. The Collection Donna Toscana consists of 3 different articles: a multipurpose bag which comes in five different colours, a pillow and a blanket doubled with a fluffy fleece. The Collection Africa is a portable bag of a size just large enough to carry the combined blanket for a comfortable picnic. The fleece protects you from humidity and keeps you and your loved ones cozy and warm.
