108 mala project

108 mala project Handmade malas for meditation & yoga with wood and stone that are mindfully sourced from conflict free farms committed and dedicated to sustainability.

108 mala project focuses on making handmade knotted mala necklaces and wrist malas used for meditation and yoga. Our woods and gemstones are mindfully sourced from conflict free family farms committed and dedicated to long term sustainability. We have designed our knotted malas to balance and strengthen your mind, body, soul and spirit energy. Each of our malas are handmade by us (Cara and Adam) a

nd we have made them all with love. A mantra has been said each time we string a new bead and tie a knot. We want to be considerate to all our customers and their requirements, so all our jewelry has been made with vegetarian hands in a smoke free, calm and peaceful environment. We are two Canadians that have been living in China for the last 12 years and now live on the sunny island of Hainan. We have traveled every corner of Asia in search of the perfect mala supplies, gemstones and wood beads. We just wanted to say THANKS for being our customer and allowing us to share our passion with you. Namaste,

Adam & Cara Harkness
Founders of 108 mala project

Cool girls have cool jobs. ✨

People see the markets. They don’t always see everything that happens before the market.

Designing new collections. Hand-knotting every mala. Testing ideas. Packing thousands of pieces. Loading the trailer. Driving for hours. Applying to juried shows and crossing our fingers. Building displays. Setting up before sunrise. Smiling for 10 hours straight. Meeting incredible people. Hearing your stories. Making new friends. Packing it all up… then doing it all again the next weekend.

And honestly? I love it.

It’s creative, it’s fast-paced, it’s a little chaotic in the best way. It keeps me inspired, keeps me moving, and reminds me why I started in the first place. Even on the long days, I feel so grateful to be doing something I genuinely enjoy.

Here’s to all the makers, artists, dreamers, and small business owners building the life they imagined. 💛

Final day! 🚨

The weather is FINALLY behaving. ☀️
Our booth is absolutely loaded.
And here’s the catch…

You won’t see us again for a YEAR. 😱

So if you’ve been saying, “We’ll come back later,”… this is your official warning. 😂

See you today before we disappear! ✌️

What’s going on over here? 👀🔨

Sawdust, screws, paint, and a whole lot of excitement…

We’ve been busy working on a brand-new project behind the scenes to get ready for our upcoming indoor and outdoor markets—especially the CNE! It’s still a work in progress, so we’re keeping the final reveal a secret… for now. 🤫

We can’t wait to show you what we’ve been building. We think it’s going to make our booth even more exciting, and we hope you’ll love it as much as we do.

Any guesses what we’re making? Let us know in the comments! 👇
