With a little more than one week to go we're excited by our progress in gaining the support needed to make the idea of a global creative community a reality.<br />
<br />
How it works. The Spring 2017 is designed/sketched/outlined thanks to the work of the ladies of OMWA in March of this year and the Beading Wolves of Oneida in May. Now we need to make it all come together, bring it off the paper into reality. <br />
<br />
This <a href="https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/maasai-plum-oneida-strawberry-global-eco-design/x/5867604#/" target="_blank">campaign</a> is for the very basics of this work: materials, beads and support for the artisans. It's that simple. Designing a collection is one step, creating the garments is quite another. This is where we need your support. Any contribution makes a huge difference.<br />
<br />
Thank you!<br />

I’d be telling false tales if I said I was living 100%
organic. But I am trying to pull myself
down a sustainable continuum to get as close as I can to a carbon neutral,
carbon zero life. That personal carbon
zero may be an impossibility – I fly on planes, ride on buses, use too much
electricity. But I keep pushing and
pulling myself down that path<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
In this post I wanted to discuss some of the beauty changes
I have made over the past few months. I
have a personal beauty motto: “If I can
eat it I will put on my face.” Now that
is not to say I am drinking cocktails made of <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/MBotanicals" target="_blank">M Botanicals</a> facial oil serums
(not edible! But it’s the best stuff for my face.). But it is organic natural botanical product
and let’s be honest not all organics, natural or botanical products are edible.
<o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
(* Less than Stellar because I took the photos post workout and my hair is flat but hopefully you can overlook that and still get some inspiration to try these tips. If not I completely understand.)<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>So to the DIY beauty
stuff.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For me the revelation is avocado hair mask. Simple to make and great for my hair. Literally nothing feels as good as this
mask. It leaves my hair soft, shiny and
I simply love it. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b>
<b>How to make the Avocado
Hair Mask.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Simple, take one half to one quarter of an organic avocado
(depending on hair length you may need more or less). Add about two tablespoons of olive oil (again
adjust to hair length) and an equal amount of honey. In warmer climates and seasons you may also
add coconut oil.**<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Whip up the ingredients with a fork until you get a smooth
consistency, separate the hair and spread it with your fingers. I also like to comb it through with my
fingers. Cover your hair with a plastic
cap and then wrap it in the towel for extra warmth. I leave it on for an hour and then rinse it
out with lukewarm water. Simple. I do
this once a week in place of any store bought hair conditioner. <o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
(In cold climates and weather the coconut oil clumps up like, well coconut chunks, I learned this the hard way.) <br />

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Body scrub<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Even more simple. You can skip spending a whole lot of money
on scrubs, especially the ones with plastic beads and whatnot. Get a large mouth glass jar with a
cover. Fill it 1/3 with salt, you’ll
want granulated salt, not the big chunks, it’s your skin. Organic sea salt is best. Fill the rest of the jar with oil of your
choice. For example, sesame, sunflower, olive, whathaveyou and stir it up. Simple again. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Be sure to scrub the shower/tub after you scrub, it will be
slippery due to the oil. You don’t want
your partner or roommate slipping and sliding all around. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b>
<b>Vitamin C face mask<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Another simple one.
Seeing a pattern? Grab one of
those Vitamin C packs in powder form.
Take a small dish and dump out half of the contents of one packet.
Slowly add water, just enough to form a nice bubbly paste. It is exfoliating, so gently rub the paste on
your face, avoid the eye area and don’t forget your neck. Leave it on for 3-5 minutes and rinse it
off. It is that simple. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<b>Rose Water Face Mist<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I was buying really lovely Rose Water from the amazing
Gilded Girl. I noticed the ingredient list: Distilled Water and Rose Oil. I thought, “Wait
I can do that.” So I went back to Gilded
Girl and asked the Liz, the owner. “Can
I just make my own Rose Water with some distilled water and oil or is there
some special secret ingredient I need?”
She said, “Nope, you can make it yourself!” Love that place. So I bought a bottle of Rose Oil and reused
the bottles I had been saving. I filled
up the bottle with distilled water and put in about 10-15 drops of the oil,
shake it and there you go. It’s even
better when left overnight before the first use. Let me know if you have any tried and true
DIY natural beauty tips to share. <o:p></o:p></div>

I watch too many old movies and I have these Walter Mitty moments that involve clothing and accessories in situations that require a Bond-like ability to move from moment to moment, seamlessly.<br />
<br />
Case in point. I imagine a day of swimming in the ocean and then having to go to a black tie event, with only a few minutes to spare. So no time to even dry your hair. <br />
<br />
The inspiration for this is a scene from Hitchock's To Catch a Thief, I imagine Grace Kelly having to leave the Mediterian not for picnic with Cary Grant but directly to a ball. So what does she do? Keeps her hair slicked back, throws on a smile but deadly white gown and then adds a OMWA + Idia'Dega hand beaded <a href="http://www.idiadega.com/store/p9/Tomon_Ear_Cuff_.html" target="_blank">earcuff </a>for some simple slay worthy bling. <br />

<span id="u6078-3" style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">We began the design workshops through discussion on solar energy (facilitated by Elizabeth Kalikoi, a member of OMWA who speaks English and Maa). We talked about what scale of energy generation was possible and what the women would like to see as additions to their homesteads.</span></span><br />

<span id="u6078-9" style="font-weight: 400;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The women enjoyed looking through the LAGI publications and the imaginative ways that solar power installations can be designed as art. After talking about how the design ideas that they bring to the Idia'Dega design collaboration could be translated to solar designs, Regina began sketching an idea for a solar artwork. Sketching caught on like wildfire and soon all of the artisans were drawing their ideas. The sketches led to conversations about the themes and symbols that were shared amongst many of the women. Representations of the sun, trees, animals, and other geometric shapes flowed forth from the paper.</span></span></div>

<span id="u6078-17" style="font-weight: 400; line-height: 21px;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">By the end of the week long workshop multiple designs were chosen to move forward to implementation. They included wearable solutions as well as more infrastructural scales for homesteads.<br />All designs are deeply reflective of the aesthetic and cultural needs of the women and their families.<br /><br />We'll return in December 2016 to finish the process.</span></span></div>

<ul><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; line-height: 21px;">
<li>Currently there is limited access to electricity, water, and sustainable heating/cooking methods.</li>
<li>A lack of access to lighting at night limits in-home learning.</li>
<li>The local population is experiencing increasingly difficult economic and social pressures on land and resources.</li>
<li>The artisans require the ability to communicate with international partners, which means the need to charge cell phones.</li>
<li>This access to communication tools increases creative and revenue building projects.</li>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Utilizing local materials with renewable energy technologies provided by the partnership as the sculptural media, Maasai women are designing functional art objects that reflect their culture and vision for the future.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">At scales ranging between 100 Wp and 5 kWp the collective output of the sculptural design-build effort will provide sustainable electricity to power individual homes, a freshwater pump, and even wearable solar power designed to meet the needs of the Maasai culture as a part of the Idia'Dega fashion collaborative. Other potential benefits include providing a solar cooking apparatus as a part of some of the installations.</span><br />

<a href="http://www.patterntoplan.com/meet-gretchen/" target="_blank">Gretchen Harnick</a> is one of those folks who really truly love fashion. And don't mean "Who wore it best, trend" stuff, though she knows her stuff on that end too. I mean the business of fashion and how to create a brand.<br />
<br />
She has launched an amazing site and service called <a href="http://www.patterntoplan.com/brand-profile-idiadega-fashion-designer/" target="_blank">Pattern to Plan.</a> She shares her knowledge with a growing global audience of fashion entrepreneurs. She did me the great honor of a feature on her site, thank you Gretchen!<br />

I have asked everyone I can think of and then some but still I have not made a dent in this process. One group I met at a local university seemed interested but I have not heard back from them.<br />
<br />

<br />
So I keep trying. What I need to do is create a virtual studio where Indigenous artisans, regardless of location or language skill may co-design together. It would be like a virtual white board but with the ability to add scanned or photographed images, save designs send them onto to someone else and then have that person also make suggestions. All the while keeping the variations, you never know when you may go back to something.<br />
<br />
The kicker is language, some of the artisans I work with do not read or write, any language so directions must be in small icons that are easily understood. <br />
<br />
Anyone with any suggestions would be a huge huge help.<br />
<br />

Thank you<br />

Love. <span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21.4667px;">So about a month ago I wrote a letter to President Obama. I told him about the OMWA + Idia'Dega collab and our new partnership with </span><a class="profileLink" data-hovercard="/ajax/hovercard/page.php?id=88054178212" href="https://www.facebook.com/Land-Art-Generator-Initiative-88054178212/" style="background-color: white; color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21.4667px; text-decoration: none;">Land Art Generator Initiative</a><span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21.4667px;"> to provide renewal energy to the Maasai community of Olorgesailie (we head to Kenya next month!).

You'll see." Audacious me. Anyway in the letter I invited him to come to Kenya later this year when hopefully LAGI, OMWA and I, will be installing co-designed renewal energy solutions in Olorgesailie. As per usual I expected a phone call from the White House asking for dates so they could book flights and secure a hut. (I assume the best option.) Not quite. But I got this awesome letter yesterday. I love our President. Yes I know it is not a letter just for me, but it is for me. And anyway I suspect one day we'll all be in Olorgesailie together. One day.</span><br />
