Here in the Philippines, we’re used to keeping our floors at home tidy by sweeping them using a walis tambo (soft-whisked broom). A walis tambo is a soft broom made from phragmites weed. Although it eventually sheds when used, it is the weapon of choice when cleaning inside the home because it is easier to use on a smooth floor compared to a mop (and vacuum cleaners aren’t a thing here because our Asian parents won’t approve of the electricity cost those will use LOL).
Recently, making rounds on social media is this unicorn walis. It basically is like a regular walis tambo but instead of having the natural brown color of the phragmites grass, it is colorful (like a unicorn).
The unicorn walis are sold on Prutas ni Nanay Facebook Page.

Delivery can be done via Lalamove, Grab, or other pabili services. Delivery fee will be shouldered by the buyer.
