We heart Eat My Words, not just because they let us have our cake in oh-so-adorable mini-cup style, but also because they help others eat too (proceeds from their treat boxes go to the Stephen Lewis Foundation, to help ease the pain of HIV/AIDS in Africa).
So we couldn’t have been more excited with eat my words launched the (more waist-friendly) initiative MonkeyBiz, a line of kid-friendly (but adult-birthday gift-worthy) beaded animals last year that offer employment and empowerment to women in Cape Town, South Africa.
Starting today and running through May 23, Eat My Words and Ingram Gallery present the first Canadian Exhibition of MonkeyBiz beaded art at Ingram Gallery. Check out the dozens of animals (starting at $50). They make the perfect gift to a child, friend, or just yourself.
Event info: Bead by Bead, May 15-23, Ingram Gallery, 49 Avenue Rd., Toronto, www.ingramgallery.com
