Mexico bartering and painting

At the resort there is ceramic and wood things to paint. Tatyanah, Amanda and I decided to paint something each, it was so fun and somehow when it is all done it looks great. We painted them, the guy fixes it up and then they take it home and fire it and bring it back the next day.

Amanda made a bowl for us to have salsa or pico in!


Tatyanah wanted a beach scene so the guy drew it on for her and she is starting her travel wall!


I made a small bowl for my rings and a few small things. I love it!


All of our creations!



Tatyanah has always been a money conscientious girl and it is very hard to barter with her. She went to the Bucerias market and saw a hammock she wanted. She let the guy talk and he started at 700 pesos. She was not interested. He went down to 500 pesos. She was not budging, He said she is a Mexican babina the way she barters. In the end she paid 300 pesos. And got the exact hammock she wanted.
