Laos Essential Artistry Posting Page
Sunday, September 7, 2008
In this post, which I will re-post occasionally, is a list of previous posts that don't appear in the Previous Post list in the archive column because they are older than the last ten posts. Each post here is linked to the entire original post. It's frustrating that since this blog has been reformated to fit within our website, we can't use the archive column on the right for lists, etc. and I want people to know as easily as possible all the posts we've written. Right now only the last ten posts appear in the archive column and then older posts are "hidden" in the weekly archive dates. We hope this helps

1st)    Welcome This was our first blog entry posting on August 15 welcoming everyone to Laos Essential Artistry
2)     LEA Certificate of Authenticity In this post we show photos of our Certificate of Authenticity and discuss how we authenticate the textiles we sell
3)    Weaving in Nongbouathong (Includes Video) In this post we show a video of a young Lao woman weaving Tai Daeng silk scarves based on an antique Tai Daeng shaman's headcloth
4)     Tai Daeng Blanket Airing Out on Fence In this post we show a photo of a blanket we saw hanging on a fence as we drove through a rural Tai Daeng village (which we consequently bought!)
5)     Our Logo
In this post we talk about how we created our award-winning logo!
6)     Giving Back: Colin Cotterill and Big Brother Mouse In this post we feature in article from the Christian Science Monitor on Colin Cotterill and his Dr. Siri Paiboun series and how he is supporting the work of Big Brother Mouse
7)     Textiles as Cultural Expressions Symposium In this post we reported on a Textiles as Cultural Expressions Symposium sponsored by the Textile Society of America, its 11th Biennial Symposium, which included a Panel Discussion on Southeast Asian Textiles
8)     The Incredible Women of Muang Sing In this post we talk about the incredibly talented Tai Dam, Mien and Hmong women of Muang Sing, whose textiles we feature on our website.
9)     Our Buddha Website Wallpaper Origins In this post we show how our website wallpaper was created
10)     Zoomified Demystified In this post we show how we use the software Zoomify to allow our customers to look at our large textiles, like our Hmong storycloths, in closeup detail
11)     The Soul of Hmong New Year In this post we include a wonderful photo we took of four young Hmong girls during Hmong New Year in a rural village in Huaphan Province. We love this photo so much we also had a series of three paintings done by Khamla portraying the same scene.
12)     Buddhist Monk's Robe Ritual In this post we show a series of ten photos I took of a monk putting on his robe before going to the temple. I think the photos portray how meaningful it is for the monks to put on their robes.
