As an animal lover, and having always appreciated beadwork, she had the idea to assist the women to earn an income from home and combine her passions to create hand-crafted pet accessories. And so began Siya Hamba, a project that uplifted women and celebrated and preserved the heritage of Zulu beadwork.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-28537 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/blog\/2023\/08\/29\/nuturing-tradition\/dsc_1590\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/08\/DSC_1590-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/blog\/2023\/08\/29\/nuturing-tradition\/spaniel\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/08\/spaniel-e1692619931740-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/blog\/2023\/08\/29\/nuturing-tradition\/dsc_1142_original\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/08\/DSC_1142_Original-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>The three women leant on knowledge from the community and taught themselves how to bead with hand-made looms.
