Museum Store Shipping 500 Peace Baskets for Clinton
posted 5:11 pm Thu December 13, 2007 - Little Rock
Staff at the Clinton Museum Store is busy wrapping and shipping the former President's Christmas gifts around the world.
This year the former president is giving hand-woven baskets made by Rwandans. They're known as "peace baskets." Museum store director Connie Fails says there are more than 500 being shipped as far away as Thailand.
Fails also says the store has been busy with shoppers this holiday season--but they're not just buying presidential memorabilia.
(Connie Fails, Museum Store Director) "A lot of people think it's a souvenir shop, so to speak, and that everything in here was branded with something about President Clinton. But his issues are so broad--one of them is the environment."
