Since our first trip in the mid-80's, Mexico captured our hearts. We were engaged and married there, and we go back whenever possible. It is a magical place of mystery, beauty, history and art. Much of our work is influenced by Pre-Columbian culture, so for us, Mexico is a well-spring of unending inspiration. On my 40th birthday, we were on top of El Castillo, a pyramid at Chichen Itza and a rainbow suddenly appeared...like a gift from the gods and later that evening we witnessed the biggest and brightest full moon.

Although we've travelled to many different parts of Mexico, it is Oaxaca that's become like a second home and we feel very connected to it. It is a city full of art and artists and over the years we've made some wonderful friends and contacts for some of the more exotic and hard to find supplies and embellishments that we use in our work. We hand select our Milagros (religious charms) from Louis and his family.
