i just love these because of moody yet vibrant colors..."wala" means "man," so a "banglewala" is the "bangle man." they press your hands together in a certain way to fit your bangles so you never take them off until they break, and then you replace them. there are about a million of them right next to one another so when you go to one booth the others just get super bummed because they all carry the same stock and it's just a matter of random choice. who will make money today?*
