In the West African nation of Senegal, Wolof women create an elegant new style of basket using strips of plastic recycled from prayer mats and rugs or purchased new from a Dakar mat factory. Merging modern materials & traditional weaving skills with local sustainable natural fiber allows rural Wolof women to comfortably earn supplemental income while sharing their chic modern creations with homes around the word.
