Real Benefits Campaign: Inspired Gifts for the Holidays
SRP: PhP 450.00 each
Tis the season of giving once more! But with all the gadgets, toys and accessories available in shops and on-line, choosing presents has become more of a chore than a thoughtful process. With everyone scrambling to the next new shiny thing, the value of handmade gifts seems a thing of the past. What do you give someone who means the world to you? Or someone who gets the latest and trendiest gifts each season?
Instead of adding to the culture of excess that each holiday brings, Leyende offers a refreshing take on truly meaningful gifts: the Real Benefits Campaign. Holiday shopping takes on a new, socially-relevant dimension with the following limited-edition
