The main reason of putting this golden idea of the Barrow Bag into a very beautiful product is because I love my country, the Gambia.

The nearby future_ stay with us
We are now gonna work on a stock-in-trade, this might take a while since the bags are very much labour-intensive. Now that we have seen how our initinal thoughts are becoming really beautiful Barrow Bags, we go on with our plans and we will try to find ways to distribute the bags. We hope you will stay with us till then!
More Barrow Bags
After Moussa showed us the first Barrow Bags, we asked him to go on with the good work he is doing for us. Barrow picked more empty waterbags from the ground and together Barrow and Aicha cleaned and prepared them to bring to Moussa again.
The bags are each unique because they are handmade. The cloth that Moussa uses for the lining are leftovers. The Barrow Bag on the right has a lining made from the leftover of a weddingdress, which makes this a very personal bag and a nice souvenir to a romantic day.

Where the Barrow Bags are made
Here at Moussá you see how young boys get a training on the job.
It is really amazing what they do with these sewingmachines.
