Threads of Life is located in a by-lane away from the hub-bub of the Ubud city centre. You will truly need Google maps to find this place. It's a very tiny store with tasteful displays of indigenous textiles from not just Indonesia but all across the world. Don't be surprised if you find some bandhni shawls from Maharashtra here. Not recommended if you are just looking for souvenirs, the variety isn't out of the world. Your time is better spent reading the stories about each of these textiles.

A must visit for anyone with a love of textiles. What an incredible value to humankind that threads of life are preserving textile processes that were facing imminent extinction, as well as providing insight to the beauty and meaning of the remarkable pieces on display.

It was the last day of my trip and I happened to come across this boutique. It's usp is it promotes traditional art form of weaving and dying cloth. Technique which is passed on from generation to generation. Although I did not buy anything which I regret but I greatly admired the collection. I did pick up the brochure. This is a must place to visit.
