Supporting & Empowering Local Female Artisans of Guatemala, The Mayan Worry Doll
Each product by Santa Playa includes a Mayan Worry Doll, handcrafted by female artisans of San Antonio, Sacatepequez, with native Mayan textiles from the Highlands of Guatemala.
According to legend, if you have a problem, share it with your worry doll. Place it under your pillow at night, and, while you sleep, she will take your worries away.
We believe in the sustainable empowerment of local artisans and the development of their skills to help break the cycle of poverty in Guatemala.
