Lima, Peru: Mery Luz Salva Diaz, a native of Lima, Peru, lives with her husband and daughter. As a fulltime working mother, she wanted to find a way to earn an income from home so she could raise her child. In 2006, with a curiosity in sustainable materials, she started to play with wooden beads, wire, fiber, and scrap felt from a toy factory in Lima. Designing and making her own "Bijouterie" got her many compliments and commissions. Later that year, she started a collection and showed it in local galleries, launching her home business. Today, she employs other mothers who make her jewelry from their own homes; allowing them to stay part of their communities, keep to their familial responsibilities, while still earning a fair wage to support their children.
