When you buy from HoonArts, you know that you're covered:
The giraffe slippers are my favorite gift I'm giving to anyone this season! The giraffe slippers are a gift for my grandson, so he hasn't seen them yet. But how great to give something that I think he'll enjoy a lot over time -- and hopefully think of me with joy when he wears them. I do my best to give gifts that also reflect my values, so sharing Hoon Arts gifts, which also help others to be self-sufficient, is very important to me. That these HoonArts women make such fun and beautiful items --- fabulous!! And they look very sturdy, too -- love the solid soles!

On the psychological side, when I visualize my future self, my higher self, she’s always dressed in nice-feeling garments that just enhance her figure. She’s elegant, sophisticated and she's generous towards herself and others. I’ve bought several HoonArts scarves and have felt that by paying more than I normally would for a scarf, I get a high quality handmade product. On top of that I also know that my dollars are not only making me look and feel good but also supporting artisans on the other side of the planet. That idea just makes me feel amazing!
