I loved the workshop! It was beautiful, I learned the technique and now I can make art at home! Mayra is beautiful!
My kids loved the cute photo opp. Fun spot to browse, comfortable shop, great service, also gave me a map of the city. Some of the crochet items detailed the hours it took to create and other nice touches throughout the store. I chose a cute notebook.
Very nice things at quite good prices. The selection isn't that big but what they have is great
Amazing store, it has all the Doña Way's products, it has Yucatec dictionaries, Christmas baubles, Yucatec nativity scenes, traditional decorations, Melipona honey, etc... All the things they sell are very cute and original, also all the things they sell have doña Way and her family, I totally recommend this concept store. Also all the staff there are really nice and kind, they explain to you all the things they have and their meaning. If you want a really original gift or souvenir from Yucatan I think this is the place.
Not other than what the modern Mayan culture represents. It's an amazing cultural project with its beautiful store. I didn't find other place that showcasts the old and the new cosmo vision of the Yucatan culture. Their unconditional support to their artists adds an extra value. No more to say about the caring of the staff, just excellent. A must visit when in Merida. Don't miss out their great social media channels too!
Delightful crafts store ideal for handmade souvenirs. Good prices for the small but charming collection on display. The owners were extremely friendly and took the time for an extended and enthusiastic conversation (via our poor Spanish and their slightly less poor English!) to tell us about the craftspeople they work with and the history/goals of different art projects they work with. Well worth a visit even if just for the conversation!
