Here are the souvenirs for the "Vietnam Stuff Giveaway" at Charlie's Place

Handmade Tie

Those of you who wear ties often may like this one. It’s a really interesting handmade tie, made personally by a woman who set up shop at a Buddhist temple in the Vietnamese coastal city of Nha Trang. The pagoda, which had been around since the year 1010, features a variety of old structures for meditation and a few somewhat ‘retired’ structures that exist to showcase the history of the people and the Pagoda.

As you can see by the photo above, the level of detail in the weaving is very nice, although this tie you see in the second picture is actually a gold-colored one that isn’t included in this giveaway. The two ties are very similar though, and both made in the same way (with slight variances in their design). If you choose this one, you’ll have a one-of-a-kind tie that is unique from all others (as all handmade stuff is), and you’ll have a short story to tell as to where it came from.

But it’s not really enough to tell you where it came from, because I find the process of its creation to be very fascinating. How it was crafted is just as awesome to me as where it was crafted, so I’ve gone and uploaded a video of how it was made, and embedded it above for you to see. It takes so long to make stuff this way… but they do it. This video is the exact place and people which created this tie.
