We purchased these bandanas for a group traveling to Tanzania and they were perfect! We loved that each bandana was made to order special for our group, and the stitching came out amazing!
The team was great to work with and extremely quick with their responses, making our order process very smooth. The shipping time was also very quick! We would 100% recommend these bandanas for personal use and gifting!
I’m Elizabeth,
I was looking around trying to find a perfect gift for my American family who were visiting Kenya for the first time and came across Ilisah and didn’t look no further! My mother in law loves loves them for our family gatherings! The fabric is amazing the embroidery is clean and fresh!! I am glad I chose Ilisah!😍❤️
I’ve always loved pouches, but I’ve never had one that fits both my personal essentials and a notebook until now. I’m honestly in love! This pouch is such a statement piece light, stylish, and the quality is top notch.
After ordering mine (and a few for my friends as gifts), my husband ended up loving them too! He now uses his to keep small essentials organized in the car. We’re officially a happy pouch loving family!
Extremely cute spoons that seem very functional. Heirloom quality and so special. Shipping took a week longer than the longest estimated delivery date… but that’s okay!
The pillow covers are wonderful, it’s high quality canvas. I love the look of the bird. The packaging was adorable!
Here’s my only “problem” They’re too beautiful to use . I use them as table decor and i love them !!
Amazing products with even better customer service! I bought 2 of sets of these and they look absolutely stunning! Love the packaging so much 🖤🖤
I ordered two to give as a gift set and absolutely loved how they looked. The were not exactly the same - there were minor differences and variations in the wood characteristics, the wood color, and the size which was exactly what I was hoping for. Absolutely gorgeous!
Love my elephants - well crafted! Beautiful reminder of our time in Kenya.
Every time I use them, am reminded of my trip to Ol Peteja.❤️❤️
