Intertwined: Handmade for Good

Your purchase makes a difference — for good! Each item you purchase from Intertwined: Handmade for Good has a unique story and was touched by many people as it made its way to you. The handmade throw pillow you purchase provides fair wages to Afghan refugees living in North Carolina. The Guatemalan cotton corte handwoven blanket uses vintage material woven by Mayan women which may otherwise make its way to the landfill. The nettle placemats provide essential work for women and families in remote villages of the Himalayas.

Intertwined was established with the idea that as global neighbors, our lives are connected. The creation, purchase and delivery of items has an impact on people near and far. With every product we offer, we strive to foster good — good for the earth, good for our partners, and good for you!

In a world of mass production and instant gratification, Intertwined can help you discover unique sustainable items to enrich your life and your surroundings. We invite you to be part of the connection. . . become Intertwined and promote the good!

Intertwined started with our love for travel, people and textiles. As long time friends, we learned that we traveled well together when we visited Uganda in 2019. If we could travel well together, we knew we could do anything together! We started Intertwined in 2022 with the primary goal of helping many of the wonderful people we had met on previous travels. We hope that the market Intertwined provides for many of the gorgeous items handcrafted by friends in Guatemala, Morocco, Uganda, Nepal, Mexico and India will help our partners provide for their families and preserve their traditions.
