Bears may seem cute and cuddly, but if you see one in nature remember to keep your distance. Wild bears definitely aren't the Teddy bears we love to snuggle with. Ursa reminds you that people bear the responsibility to keep wildlife wild.
OUR STRING DOLL ARTISTS are based in small villages in the mountains outside of Chiang Mai in northern Thailand. Crafting String Dolls is the main occupation for most of our artisans, which means a reliable income and improved living standards for their families and communities in their economically developing regions. When they are not making string dolls, many of our workers spend time taking care of their families and tending to their vegetable gardens for self-sufficiency. Some have other jobs such as sewing or working in shops and restaurants.
