Creative Hands of Oaxaca

"Most of the members of Creative Hands of Oaxaca have learned our art from our parents. This is the legacy they have given us."

"We are a collective with the primary goal of helping talented artisans grow, and have worked with you since autumn of 2018. During this time, we've learned a lot about how to improve, especially when it comes to the images we portray in our jewelry and decor accents.

"We really like the visibility we have achieved. Knowing our work will go to people in other countries who appreciate it is very motivating.

This has been a process with a lot of a lot of learning. Little by little, we've become more conscious of the value of quality. Each design carries a part of us, from how we imagine it to the process of crafting it until it becomes what it needs to be. Observing the growth of our group and our ability to organize makes us feel good and proud.

"Your mission of giving us worldwide exposure so people know what is behind our country's culture is wonderful.

"Our group changes constantly, and we have been taught to embrace this. We want to expand and develop more designs that allow us to have a greater presence with you all."

Original Artisan Story

"The Creative Hands of Oaxaca artisan group is formed by people from different areas of this beautiful region of Mexico.

"We work in a variety of media such as tin repoussé, handwoven and embroidered textiles, and jewelry. We also work in metal. We put our hearts and souls as well as our Oaxacan identity into each and every design. At the same time, we are generating employment opportunities in our communities.

"The object of this collective is to work as a team. We support one another and share our skills and knowledge. This helps us grow as artists and as people while we create a sense of preserving the culture of our country.

Everything we've done to create this wonderful group has been a challenge, which has let us learn from every single person in the group. One of these challenges has been the many different languages spoken by members, although we share a common vision that benefits us all.

"Most of the members of Creative Hands of Oaxaca have learned our art from our parents. This is the legacy they have given us. It's our duty to help support the household after school and we do this through the traditions of our people.

"For all of us, our constant and disciplined work has helped us master our crafts, and we know we can't give up. We must be faithful to what we love.

"We have many different sources of inspiration. Each of us feels a different emotion at the moment we create a design. But almost all of us agree that it's our homeland that gives us the lucidity to create new works of art.

"Our common goal is to consolidate our work and share this passion with those who let us. We are grateful to all of you for this opportunity to show our art in other latitudes."

FINDING YOUR SIZE

Take your measurements with the tape measure over your under garments. If your measurements fall between sizes you may prefer the next larger size. Inseam, skirt and dress lengths vary by style and will be listed in the item description. Our sweaters are knit in standard American sizes, however actual measurements vary by style.

BUST / CHEST

Measure around the fullest part of chest under the arms and over the shoulder blades keeping the tape measure level.

WAIST

Measure around the smallest part of the waist keeping the tape measure comfortably loose. Most garments use the low waist measurement noted below.

LOW WAIST

Measure around the body approximately 1.5" below the natural waist (above). This is the area where most pants and skirts actually fit.

HIPS

Standing with your heels together, measure around the fullest part of the body approx 7"-8" below the waist.

NECK

Measure around the base of the neck keeping the tape measure comfortably loose.

SLEEVE

Bend elbow slightly and starting at the center back of the neck, measure across the shoulder, to the elbow and down to the wrist.

INSEAM

Our standard inseam length for women is 32" and 34" for men; however inseam measurements will vary slightly by style.

 

Belts with buckles are measured in inches that correspond to a waist size however, most people do not wear belts on the waist, they wear them closer to the hips. A buckle belt measurement is take from the end of the "pin" of the buckle to the middle hole on the belt. Generally there are 5 holes for size adjustment, with a 1" space between each, so the middle hole will the be average size of the belt.

For at tie belt (no buckle) measure the belt portion end to end and half of the tie portion. This again is the medium size of the belt.

For a soft fabric tie belt it can be called "1 size fits most" and the entire length of the belt should be measured and listed.

Triple 'Win' Pricing

UNICEF Market offers triple win pricing, where YOU the consumer, Children from around the world, and Artisans all benefit.

WIN # 1 You Save!

Handmade goods from developing nations usually pass through a series of intermediaries before being purchased by retail consumers. Each of these intermediaries adds cost to the product, and that cost is passed on to the customer. UNICEF USA partnered with NOVICA, who works directly with artists through their regional offices in Asia, Africa and Latin America, allowing purchases from UNICEF Market to go directly from the artisans to fulfilling customer orders. By skipping steps in the traditional supply chain, you can buy high quality items for less than the regular retail prices.

WIN # 2 Children Benefit!

Each item purchased from UNICEF Market will benefit UNICEF's programs that provide lifesaving nutrition, medicine, education, clean water, emergency relief and more to children in need.

You can learn more about UNICEF's work, on About UNICEF.
