PURA VIDA.


Just a few of my favourite picks from the Pura Vida Bracelet range that we are now selling on our eBay store.
These bracelets are handmade by artisians, originating from Costa Rica. As I am half Costa Rican it makes me very proud to be supporting the cause that they support by being a member of 1% for the planet. With every bracelet sold 1% is donated to the Surfrider Foundation, which is dedicated to protecting & preserving beaches & oceans worldwide; making them safer for humans & animals.
Every bracelet purchased also helps provide full time jobs for local artisans in Costa Rica. Through the growth of the brand Pura Vida, they are now able to provide food, shelter & clothing for 15 wonderful artisans.
On top of that, they are amazing to wear! Each coated with a wax film the bracelet only gets better the more it is worn! Each one has a unique colour combination so coming across a similar bracelet will be hard to find.
These bracelets are worn widely & stocked by those in the United States but we are one of the only stores who stock them in Australia.

    1. Yes they're gorgeous aren't they? I've never tried making my own string DIY bracelets, but if I did, these would come pretty close to my ideal! X
