SOUVENIR GUIDE De MEXICO

Match the personality traits of a family, friend or colleague by bringing back just the right item from your trip to Mexico! Sure, clothing is always an easy Go-To when it comes to souvenirs but you can try to get more creative on this trip!! Going for a certain degree of sentiment? Maybe a big smile? These are just a few suggestions on gift-getting the Mexican way!

HAND-MADE


Hand-made goodies like hand-woven baskets are extremely popular and common in the native culture. Nab a few woven crafts to send to co-workers or friends back home!


POTTERY





Mexico is rich in red clay and in some regions black clay. This allows for production of massive amounts of clay work and pottery. You can choose something neutral and simple or with as many colors as you desire.


WOOD CARVINGS


Oaxacan wood carvings, most of the time portray mythological animals from Mexico and can be purchased all over the country. An added perk about this souvenir is you can usually watch the craftsman create your gift right in front of you.

SILVER

This gift option centers on a little more sentiment but since Mexico is a big silver mining country, there is no lack of options of silver selections. Not only is there silver in abundance, the craftsman can create about anything you want and all at very nice and often negotiable prices!
