These are a few of gorgeous items that are made in Santa Clara. It is hard to believe they start as ugly pieces of brick or wire and are hand-crafted into this. Finally, a fruit bowl large enough to hold a bunch of bananas and all the other fruits my family enjoys. (It's huge!)
These canisters were taken to the next level of craftsmenship. Because of the gorgeous overlay, no polishing will ever be needed. Azucar means sugar and cafe means coffee. I can't wait to add these to my kitchen counter tops in Oregon. I will discuss later why there are butterflys on these canisters. That will be for a future post, after we travel past Morelia next weekend.
A smaller fruit bowl perfect for Mexico's lemon and limes. I particularly love the leaves.
Every shop sells the classic Mexico designer plate. It was overwhelming to see all the copper items. One shop in itself was enough but this town has two long streets full of shops, each loaded with beautiful merchandise. A woman's paradise!

Those are all so amazing Tammy! How much longer until you come home? Love you! Hugs to all!
About 5 more weeks. We are all sad but glad....
I understand how you feel... Are you going to go again ever?
Yes! We will be coming back in 2-3years for further study. Don't tell my mom though. She has told Mike he isn't to take her family that far away again. ~Smile. She misses us. Next time it will be for a much shorter time period though. Only 6 or 7 weeks.
