Don’t you think it would be a great time to redecorate your home? People are always talking about “out with the old, in with the new.” Why not try “out with the new, in with the old” – or the traditional, at least!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Take a look at some of these fine household decorations, arts and crafts that I found at last week’s Oaxaca culture fair.\u00a0 In this first picture, notice the busts of a Mexican president made of the same materials and along side of the ancient pre-hispanic pottery, skulls and animal figures.\u00a0 (I believe the president is Benito Juarez, given recognition in Mexico similar to that of Abraham Lincoln in the U.S.)<\/p>\n

You might also want to add a few candles to your new decor, in these clay candle holders, made onsite:<\/p>\n
These fans would look nice on the wall, but if you’re living in Playa del Carmen, on the beach, I would suggest keeping them on the coffee table so people can actually use them:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Finally, while you’re in the process of redecorating, you might as well throw out the old pots and pans, and perhaps the dishes too, and try something more “down to earth:”<\/p>\n
I love these culture fairs that we enjoy here in Playa del Carmen.\u00a0 I makes it easy to get a taste of other parts of Mexico. While traveling to these places is always the best way to go, it might help you decide which location to travel to first!<\/p>\n
