Well there is no doubt the shopping season is in full swing and nothing makes me happier than sharing with you a gift idea that is all about giving hope to women across the world this holiday season.

31bits.com is an organization that sells jewelry handmade by women displaced by war in Northern Uganda. Each piece is bought directly from these women and is made out of 100% recycled paper, newspaper and magazines. 31 Bits is centered around the creative art and entrepreneurship present in all women. By creating an international marketplace for their creations, the proceeds assist these women with education, nutrition and healthcare for their families.
