Believe it or not, mirrors like these are the very first idea I had for the huipil collars, but I'm only now starting on them. The wood circles and 7" mirrors were things I couldn't seem to find in Antigua.
I've made two mirrors so far, using collars that I've been hanging on to for more than a year. A lot of the thick collars like these are cut from huipiles made in the town of Almolonga. I like how they're turning out... The collars are so vivid, they're just screaming to be used in craft projects!

Erin- are you selling them? Everytime I visit and Bug is sitting with me, he tells me that he needs to buy them.
This is bad that I am letting the 3 year old make shopping decisions for me. Although he does have exceleent taste.
Love to you,
Deb
