...Kajiado West, who are all part of Ushanga Kenya Initiative. The Enkarewa is a traditional handmade Maasai wedding necklace worn by the bride during her wedding. It is as a symbol of Unity, Family, Togetherness, Friendship and Brotherhood. #UshangaKe #Nunuashangajengamama

Her Excellency, First Lady of The Republic of Kenya,@mamarachelruto gifting @BerniceKing a beautiful Enkarewa and a beaded bag during her visit to the US. The neckpiece was made by Kiingaraasi Seneyia from Tinga, Kiserian while the bag was made by Women from Oltinga...

A gift from the heart of Kenya crafted by Kenyan women under the @UshangaKE initiative. As a true ambassador for women empowerment, First lady @MamaRachelRuto gifted @BerniceKing a neck piece from @UshangaKE in Kenya. @WilliamsRuto #RutoinUS 1/4

This particular piece was made by Kiingaraasi Seneyia from Tinga Kiserian. She is a member of the Ushanga initiative whose core objective is women empowerment, especially women from marginalized regions. @UshangaKE @MamaRachelRuto @WilliamsRuto #RutoinUS @OleItumbi 2/4

@UshangaKE @MamaRachelRuto @WilliamsRuto @OleItumbi @BerniceKing May you be one of our ambassadors @BerniceKing as we strive to empower these women. Thank you @Mashipei3 for being at the forefront of this initiative. @MamaRachelRuto @WilliamsRuto #RutoinUs @OleItumbi 4/4

@UshangaKE @MamaRachelRuto @WilliamsRuto @OleItumbi The bag was made by women in Oltinga, Kajiado West. @UshangaKE stands as a symbol of empowerment, progress & limitless possibilities. It supports over 10,000 women in developing nature friendly businesses & value addition on leather. @MamaRachelRuto #RutoinUs @BerniceKing 3/4

Once the loom is ready, you can use it to make bracelets, necklaces, decorate handbags, washbags and decorative pillows. The loom thus adds value to the products. #UshangaKe #Nunuashangajengamama #valueaddition #capacitybuilding #protectandpreserve #womenempowerment

Beading on loom is a technique that is achieved by inserting threads side by side, over and under a stationary thread. The stationary thread is held in place by tension and the thread that holds your beads are wooven through, achieving beautiful patterns.
