Bundle and SAVE! These bracelets hail from the colorful villages surrounding beautiful Lake Atitlán, Guatemala.
Access to opportunities and support along the way have allowed the artisans to invest (on average) 90% of their wages back into their families: these women are more likely to send their daughters to school, to have improved health, and to become catalysts for positive change within their communities.
Woven on mini foot looms, our newest LOVE bracelets are inspired by the woven hair ribbons Guatemalan women use in their hair wraps. Each cotton bracelet’s color symbolizes the unique cultural attributes of its artisan’s home village in the Lake Atitlán region, including:
Santiago - Purple
San Antonio - Blue + Turquoise
San Juan - Natural Tones (Yellow + Gold)
Santa Caterina - Pink + Red
As if this look-good-feel-good collection wasn’t already complete, we’re including a traditional worry doll with each bracelet purchase. Whisper your deepest concerns to these “Muñecas Quitapenas” before placing them under your pillow; legend has it that they’ll spirit away your worries while you slumber.
Hand-woven on mini foot looms in the indigenous styles of ancient Mayan civilization, these bracelets are inspired by vibrant colors, unique to each village, and worn in the hair ribbons of the women of Guatemala.
Our artisans in Guatemala are able to invest up to 90% of their wages from your purchases back into their families, making them more likely to send their daughters to school, to have better health, and to be a positive influence in their communities.
