Sliema Arts Festival 2016

Sliema Art's Festival official photos granted us this amazing shot of Nakul doing Emma's dreads on the Sliema Promenade. It took him the entire Sunday morning and afternoon and at the end we had a very happy client :)

It was a week-long fun festival starting on 11th June with a freakin' windy weekend! But still we went on and had a little stall in the most cool location ever, right next to the beach!

Highlight of the stall were the 'Territory of Love' hats and our hemp bags, together with some jewellery and some pallet art.

This is Surfer's Paradise - 'We are all Aliens' set up near the beach at night!
Organized by Duncan F and Alex Thomson this amazing set up was definitely the coolest I've ever seen :) 
A kinda thing that attracts good vibes only :)

Earth Garden 2014

The most incredible festival in Malta, Earth Garden, took place on the 6th, 7th and 8th of June.

Our stall was set up near the Enchanted Forest, under the grateful shade of the trees.
With different live music every 2 hours, we enjoyed every beat.

Keep Calm And Get Dreadlocks featured dreadlocks making and fixing services as well as hair strings. The selection of over 50 clip-on strings that can be seen hanging in the above image, were a huge success. An array of colours, beads, feathers, charms, and different techniques of macrame made them a sell-out. 

'How badly do you like skulls' was a collection of jewellery, scarfs, cushion covers, and anatomically precise skull clay sculptures that our friend Tom creates.

Our stall was enhanced with beautiful bags, belts and hats, handmade from Nepal.

There was also the section with a variety of body piercing items, including glow in the dark tunnels, together with steel, titanium and organic piercings.

And finally there was the brand new stock of dreadlocks beanies, hats, beads and charms.

All good things come to an end...

As we watch the video of the 2014 edition, and see ourselves... we recall those fantastic memories... and look forward for Earth Garden 2015!

Hemp for your dreads

I discovered hemp in Nepal. In the mad and crazy streets of Thamel there are many shops specializing in products made out of hemp.

Waistcoats, scarfs, trousers, shirts, sandals and boots... and of course hats and caps.

At last the hemp caps have arrived! Here they are:

These caps have a cool fit and very warm colours, ideal for summer and winter alike.

Here's a set of three hats that can also be worn as a neck warmer.

Here are some brimmed caps.

This blue/orange/purple brimmed cap has a larger diameter, perfect for tuckin' in those dreads!

Another brimmed cap, this one with back adjustable string.

This is the only beanie in hemp natural colour.

These products are 100% hemp handmade in Nepal.
