“Beautiful details - Great skill”

So glad to see this set is available again. When it bought the set, it was the last one available. I kept one for myself and gave the other one to a friend. Dragonflies are very special. I have purchased many of these beaded ornaments from Santiago Atitlan Womens Group.

“Stunning work- Amazing beadwork”

So glad to see this ornament is available again (I put a ribbon on it for hanging on my tree). I got the last one available when I bought it. Hurry, only one is left now. The beautiful, highly skilled bead-work by these Guatemalan women never disappoints. I have purchased many treasures for myself and as gifts. I am always watching some of the in my Wish List.
