I started working in the mud workshop mi Papá from the age of 8, where I obtained the First prize for children's crafts. Over time I was obtaining other national awards and recognitions granted by Fonart. Sedesol and the municipalities of Tlaquepaque as well as Citizen of the Year in Metepec.

All my pieces carry a certificate of authenticity. Pieces can be made to order with the desired theme / designs, which also carry the DO Hologram (Denomination of Origin)
I am a mother of three who came from the mountains in northwest Jalisco. I am part of a group called Wixáritari, more commonly known as the Huicholes peoples, who are a pre-Hispanic indigenous culture known for their art and colorful clothing, yet we face enormous challenges and discrimination in Mexico. As a child with limited opportunities, I made the decision to leave my village and move to the coast; Since then I have kept myself and my children making figures and jewelry in the traditional huichol style and selling them to tourists, wearing beeswax, chaquiras of different colors and threads to create bright patterns with deer, snakes, flowers, etc.
My name is Jess de la Cruz, now Morenita Renita. I am Mexican and communication. I love painting and I love to travel. Therefore, I wanted to gather all this, doing something that I am passionate about and fills me with life, and that at the same time highlights the personality of women, painting hats by hand. I want the hat to become more than an accessory in a reflection of your personality. His acrylic painting makes him not despinated.
When the few christian churches were abandoned after the conquest, the Huichol out of respect to other beliefs decided to take care of the statues of their saints, and despite the fact that we have ceremonial centers themselves, the Huichol live in isolated ranches with our families instead of in Villages, which has allowed us to keep our beliefs and traditions through the representation of ourcraft.

Hello, my name is Guadalupe Taja and my business is about selling layers with leather trimmings joined with hand-woven. I have 10 women that I help and they help me, knitting all the time since my article is used all year round, because you can use it in summer as an accessory or in winter to cover yourself from the cold. As it is a handmade article and the leathers are never the same, the layers are made with what is in the moment and there is never one layer the same as another but they all resemble the design you see.

I am an indigenous craftsman originating from the area of the river Balsas in Guerrero, specialist in the art "Tlacuilo-Tlamayekchiwke" which means painters of flowers made with hands. Our technique was inherited from the former painters of pre-Hispanic and colonial codices, with which we have obtained recognition as the "national prize of Sciences and Arts in 2007". For cell phone cases, we start by basing them with cobalt blue, then we apply the drawings inspired by the history of our peoples, animals such as the Quetzal, rabbit races, as well as the Aztec Greeks. In the end we end up with a polyester resin to protect it.
