About these products
Alamex Crafts is a line of bright and colorful papier mache and
plaster of paris fish strings and wall plaques from the beautiful
central Mexican town of San Miguel de Allende. This area of Mexico has
a wonderful tradition of crafts and is a region with an abundance of
talent.
Many Uses
The hand-painted, lightweight, and fun papier mache strings are ideal for
decorating a home or patio. Fish strings are available in a
variety of colors and patterns. Fruits, chiles and vegetables come in
different assortments. Wall plaques are brightly painted images of
your favorite animals and images. Perfect for children's rooms, dens,
kitchens and restaurants. Custom designs are also available (minimum
order required and 3 months delivery).
Strings and plaques can hang outdoors as long as they are protected
from direct rain. All crafts are sealed with lacquer and will not
fade if exposed to direct sunlight. Hooks are attached so you can hang
them from ceilings, posts, or in windows -- they are real
eye-catchers!
Responsible
Papier mache fits well our desire to promote sustainable craft
development, since it uses recycled newspaper and low impact
materials. A percentage of sales from these products will be used
to support biodiversity conservation and environmental education
projects in the mega-diverse country of Mexico.
