‘Festive Cheer’ Recycled paper ornaments

One of our favorites is this set of recycled paper ornaments crafted by special needs children in Guatemala. Inspired to start a program for kids with disabilities in memory of their daughter, Argentina and Francisco launched ADISA (Association of Parents and Friends of People with Disabilities Santiago Atitlán.) With help from Special Education professionals, the children have been attending mainstream schools while learning useful skills like crafting from recycled newspapers. Over a dozen kids contributed to the process of folding, rolling, shaping and assembling these colorful, paper ornaments. The effort, quality, and beauty that goes into each unique piece is evident in the details.

Another completely unique, handcrafted design from Central America is the ceramic Christmas star.  Made from terracotta, these decorations are perfect for use as an ornament, package topper or stocking stuffer.  Artisan Jose Arriola of Antigua has been working with ceramics alongside his mother since he was a child. While he has embraced the challenges his work brings, his own children have decided to take a different path, and that’s just fine with him. His dedication to his craft has made it possible for them to attend college, be independent, and discover their own passion.

Whether you add it to the tree, over a doorway or around a fireplace, a garland is sure to give your surroundings some extra spirit.
