cultural decor

This ornament was a special ornament on my tree. It's so well-made, with obvious care taken to even the smallest detail. A very special "gift" came within the packaging - a small, small little figure, about 1/2 inch tall. The detail on the doll was so intricate.

I received the nativity scene and I'm so delighted with it! The figures are so endearing and the animals are so cute they make me smile and laugh out loud! The quality of craftsmanship is excellent. Thank you so much!

This is a large Christmas stocking made by the artisans at Santa Magdalena using the traditional arpillera or patchwork art of sewing three dimensional designs. I also have two of their wall hangings and can say they are excellent artisans in this art and I love their work. This stocking has a star shooting through the sky, and a stable picturing the nativity. This nativity is very simple, with adorable figures representing the mother, father and the baby Jesus, surrounded by many, many Andean animals and trees, cacti, flowers and mountains. Each time you look at the stocking you will see something else they have sewn. I really love this stocking very much. I thank these ladies and wish them a very Happy Christmas!
