I have a couple beautiful ZuluGrass necklace strands to give away. And yes these necklaces are really made from grass and glass beads on a stretchy elastic string. The necklaces can be worn as bracelets, anklets, belts, hair accessories and more.
To find out how to get a free ZuluGrass necklace keep reading.
Zulugrass Jewelry is made by the Masaai women of Kenya and sold through the Leakey Collection. The Leakey’s have created thousands of jobs in non-factory settings for the Masaai women in the Kenya area who make the jewelry using tradtional methods using grass and wood found in the area.
Zulugrass is made from African grass that is harvested by hand and each bead is cut from the grass strands, the beads are waterproof and are dyed in a wide variety of colors. The beads are strung onto heavy duty elastic and hand blown glass beads are added to create beautiful jewelry that is versatile, colorful and eco-friendly.
To win your free strand just leave a comment and make sure your contact info is available so you can be emailed if you are chosen as a winner. There will be four winners. I will choose the winners next Tuesday on June 2.

Beautiful necklaces. Are the women that work in the factory able to support their children to get better education and health care? I applaud these great efforts to make life better for those that have talents and can share them and in kind support their families! Fabulous!
The contest is now closed, winners have been chosen. Thank you all for entering.
Grass Zulu Beads make me feel happy. I love to think about the African women who make them! Thanks.
Oh! These are beautiful. God bless the Masai women who make them.
I have a single strand of these beads and am really curious to know what the scientific name of this grass is. Also, what makes the grass so hard, is it silicates? Thanks for helping to make human habits more diverse and sustainable.
