Handmade beaded Christmas ornaments are a fabolous gift to give just about anyone. At the Mayan Families shop you can find these Christmas ornaments and more, made by the women around the lake, that have also participated in the sewing project.
These ornaments are hand-beaded with intricate geometric designs and finished with beaded strings of shooting stars and other decorations. The round ball Christmas ornament measures approximately 7-1/2" in diameter but size may vary slightly due to the handmade nature of the item. This hand-beaded Guatemalan ornament is made of glass beads and is crafted in a variety of colors including red, gold, and blue. The beaded loop is about 2 inches, enough for hanging on your Christmas tree.
Making beaded holiday ornaments is a great source of work for Maya
women. They can bead Christmas ornaments from home which allows them to take
care of children and elderly family members while earning a steady income.
