Lebaran Hampers

Eid-ul fitr or Lebaran as we call it here, is almost here...

As a little girl, I remember it was the happiest moment to hear the doorbell ring and see a guy waiting outside with a Lebaran hamper in his hand. It's a tradition for Muslims to send gifts during that time. All packages were well decorated and it was really beautiful.

Now I live in Bali, where most people are Hindu. I will no longer hear the doorbell nor see a guy with a Lebaran hamper in his hand, but I wanted to keep those memories alive by making these Hampers.

I know of a lot of people who still keep this tradition, as it's a moment to celebrate and share their happiness at the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting.

HAPPY EID-ul fitr FOR THOSE WHO CELEBRATE IT
