More Than a Gift: The Human Hands Behind Matr Boomie
At Echoes Custom Creations, we believe a gift should tell a story—not just of the person receiving it, but of the person who made it. That’s why we are beyond thrilled to feature Matr Boomie, a fair-trade collective that is quite literally changing the landscape of artisan communities in India.
You may ask how do you pronounce Matr Boomie and what does it mean?
[mä-ter boo-mē]
In Sanskrit, Matr Signifies ‘MOTHER’ and Boomie stands for ‘LAND’. Together, MATR BOOMIE means MOTHERLAND.
THE GROUND WE WALK ON, THE CREATIVE SOURCE. IT REMINDS US THAT WE ARE ALL CONNECTED BY ONE MOTHER EARTH, TRANSCENDING BOUNDARIES.
