Rwandan artisans are paid fair trade wages in exchange for masterfully crafted products, and beauty is added to your life, home and gift-giving.
Hand Carved
Hand Carved Tabletop Goods for the collection were born out of Macy’s memories in the kitchen – growing up cooking and baking with different women in her life, learning to make soup during the holidays, cakes and pies for birthdays, early morning coffee and many more.
Fun fact: Each spoon is named after an influential woman in her family!
Wall Hangings
Inspired by the natural beauty of neutrals and her favorite colors since childhood, Macy designed these wall hangings to tell a story. Each wall hanging features an intricate design that took a master weaver around one full week to create.
Baskets
Practical and modern solutions for your living space. Featuring interchangeable tassel strands and made from natural sisal fiber, these fair trade beauties will find the perfect place in your home.
Trays
Universal trays are a design detail that go with almost any design style – from placing them in an entry way, to a coffee table, to holding personal items – Macy White Home Collection trays are stunning, practical additions to any home.
About The Designer
Meet Macy White
Born and raised in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Macy White is an interior designer for her own design company, Sycamore Dwelling, Co. in Oklahoma.
Macy’s natural love for design, coupled with her family’s encouragement, developed her into a passionate little girl… a little girl with a unique love for detail. That love for detail has only grown over the years while working with numerous clients, with various design styles. Today, Macy is honored to be working on many design projects and bringing design dreams to life.
About The Artisans
Designed For Impact
During the design process, Macy was able to hand her design to expert Rwandan artisans. With very few refining recommendations, they brought the collection to life.
For many mamas like Emmanuelia Muhawenimana of Abihuta Cooperative, motherhood and craft are tightly woven together. Each Macy White Home Collection wall hanging, like the one Emmanuelia created, is tagged with the artisan’s name. Beauty from her hands to yours, from her home to yours.
