My sister just gave me one of these necklaces and it is amazing! It looks just like beads, but it's made out of paper!

So here's the scoop...
"Each necklace is 100% unique and is hand-crafted (out of recycled paper) by women in Uganda. Through Light Gives Heat's Suubi(hope) project, the women are able to make a consistent income where there once was none. Profit is then directed back to Uganda and helps run literacy classes, English classes, computer classes, etc... "
So if you have a chance, check out their website. It's an incredible organization.
