colorful wall art

Beautifully encircled by a striped pattern in hues of blue and white, this textured cosmetic bag is crafted by Guatemala’s Claudia Hernandez who carefully weaves it from recycled vinyl cords. Both eco-friendly and utilitarian, its fully-lined interior and zippered closure guarantee to keep your makeup and beauty must-haves always secure.

Woven by hand, this colorful green hammock boasts the serene hues of the Mexican Caribbean. Maya Artists of the Yucatán create it in the same way they have for centuries, finishing the ends with strong loops for hanging.

Long before the Spanish arrived upon the coasts of the Yucatan Peninsula, the Maya preferred to sleep and rest in hammocks. They considered the hammock to be like the loving embrace of a mother, due to the comfortable manner in which the body is held and swung within its cradle. Maya Artists of the Yucatan seek to preserve time-honored customs while also offering stylized versions of the original Maya hammock. For them, the hammock is a work of art. Their hammocks are incredibly comfortable, easy to maintain, and may be stored just about anywhere.

Please note: The accompanying extension ropes may vary in color from those shown in the images.

It easily packs for travel to the beach or lake. Extender ropes (measuring 1 meter), hammock hooks ("S" hooks), and step-by-step instructions included for easy installation.

NOTE: Because each is woven individually by hand, measurements may vary by as much as ten centimeters. There may be slight color variations from hammock to hammock.

This 100% cotton billfold style wallet is hand woven on a backstrap loom, and depicts three children holding hands. It is made by Consorcio, a collective of 11 organizations for Guatemalan indigenous women to help them economically and combat violence against women.

Radiating earthy elegance, this practical and sophisticated wallet elevates organization to an art form. Artisans from the Life and Hope Women's Association (Asociacion de Mujeres Vida y Esperanza) in Guatemala masterfully weave cotton on pedal looms, creating subtle stripes in gorgeous neutral hues. Meticulously lined and trimmed in tan leather, the interior features three bill compartments and fourteen card slots secured by a magnetic snap closure.
