Argentina and Francisco present this cheerful set of owl ornaments on behalf of the artisans who created them. They live with different physical or mental skills. They craft each owl by hand by recycling newspapers and paint them in bright red, blue, yellow and green only on one side. The underside preserves the original look of the rolled-up newspapers. The four ornaments hang from cotton cords. "By assisting these young artisans earn from their craft, we are helping them on the road to being self-sustainable," believe Argentina and Francisco, who founded the workshop in memory of their daughter.
