Well, I've wanted to sell Guatemalan goods via this web page for a while now, so we'll see if now that at least I've gotten this page up, that it means I'll get the rest of it organized!!

I'm interested in doing this for a couple of reasons. Primarily, to provide an outlet for the weavers and some of the other local artisans I know who would really like to sell more of their goods. The economy is not good, as everyone knows, and people are hurting financially here even more than they are in many other parts of the world. Also, to provide more income for us. Kids are not cheap to raise these days !!

For those who have been here, you are familiar with the woven goods Lidia and her family weave, wall hangings, table runners, coin purses with your name woven in, also typica woven goods that Zoila sells, and we have many, many beautiful used huipiles available for reasonable prices. We also sell beaded jewelry - those little bolsitas, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, fun things for very reasonable prices.

FAMOUS LAST WORDS !! It's been years and I can't seem to make it happen. Just too many details to take care of in life. SO... I know a woman who just opened a store with Guatemalan goods in Syracuse, New York. It's called QUE COLORES... you may email Muriel Medina at BestofGuatemala@aol.com. or try Happy Mango Imports,, they have lots of stuff reasonably priced and seem like nice folks Happy Mango Imports - Traditional Guatemalan Textiles
