Folksy Handmade - Mexico

This Folksy Friday was inspired by my handpainted flower pots which use stylised Mexican Aztec patterns. I really love the warm colours you find in Central American art. So I've collected together a selection of items inspired by Mexico, including their holiday celebration for The Day of the Dead, and Mexican Folk Art, Papel Picado. A fab mix of bright colours, folk art, and geometric patterns.
