I love that this adds a little dimension to my other wall art and it’s a great example to show house guests how some Guatemalan textiles are made by hand :)
I love my mini picbil loom! It's a beautiful reminder not only of the Mayan women and their work but also of how the textiles I love so much are actually created. The only problem I'm having is finding the perfect spot in my apartment to show it off! (It might have to be on rotation between rooms - that's how sweet it is.)
