This workshop of talented artisans not only make our restaurant glassware, but our accommodation folders too.  Papercraft's recycling workshop is in the Wakiso District, on the way to Entebbe, and a really great place to stop off when en-route to the airport. They have beautiful glass items for sale from glasses, jugs, lampshades, plus photo frames, book marks, greeting cards and stationary holders made from recycled paper. Everything is carefully packaged for international and domestic travel.
