At Good Glass we up-cycle used bottles from the local area of Kampala into uniquely beautiful household items, reducing the damaging litter in the streets whilst promoting environmental sustainability. All of this is produced in Uganda, by Ugandans! If you're in the area, come visit to see an array of items from chandeliers to candle holders. Great gifts for yourself or a friend. You are most welcome!

My wife and I stumbled onto this place when walking around Kampala, but I'd really recommend going out of your way to check out this shop. Really cool way to promote reuse of products and directly impacting the community in need.

I stopped in during the Christmas Market, and ended up running out twice to get more cash, everything was so cute! The clothing is very well made, and the designer knows exactly what will look good on your body (I doubted at first but she knows her stuff!). The jewelry is gorgeous and there's also a selection of high-quality natural soaps and skin care products. This is a must-visit!

COVID-19 took away my trip to Uganda and Gulu. I was reliving some of my favorite places in Uganda, and this is a highlight of the trip. First of all, if you go to Uganda, you have to bring back gifts for family and friends, Their shop is a must stop. Friendly people, at times you can see them working, and great items at reasonable prices, plus talk to the women—ask them the meaning of Wawoto Kacel. Easiest way to get there take a fun Boda, Boda ride. Just tell them Waworo Kacel next to the Golden Peace Hotel.
