LAURA

What do you do and what is your specialty?

I am a home maker, I run my family business, and I am an artisan.

How did you begin working with your craft?

My path in handicrafts began at 12, under my uncle's guidance in our small town. He ran a handicraft business and a local hotel, and it was through selling his products on the streets that I discovered my passion for entrepreneurship. This early experience, filled with vibrant colors and intricate designs, sparked my dream of someday running my own cooperative to showcase local crafts.

This dream gained clarity when I met Francisco, and together, we embarked on creating our own handicraft business, a journey we've shared for 18 years. My father, though not wealthy, gifted me with invaluable business wisdom and a small investment. With this, Francisco and I started our venture, gradually nurturing it into the flourishing business it is today.

What is your dream/aspiration?

My dream is to keep working and to finish building my house. If God allows it, one day I wish to travel to see where Giovanna sells my products in the United States.

How has working with Lumily impacted your life?

For the last 13 years, Lumily has impacted my life by allowing me to grow economically so I can keep building onto my house and to continue being able to send my two kids to school.

What is your favorite part of your job?

My favorite part is that I’m always learning new things and we are always making new designs. But the most important part for me is that Lumily’s customers like my work and that Giovanna has become a part of my family.

How did you begin working with your craft?

From a young age, in the heart of my small town, I was cradled in the rich traditions of weaving and embroidery.

As I grew, so did my mastery of the art, shaped by the legacy of these remarkable women. Today, each piece I craft is a testament to their teachings.

Maria

What do you do and what is your specialty?

I live in the highlands of Guatemala. My craft is beading, a skill I learned from my grandmother. It's a tradition in our family and in our community. I create intricate beadwork, making everything from jewelry to decorative items that reflect our rich cultural heritage.

How did you begin working with your craft?

My journey with beading started very early. As a child, I was always fascinated by the beads, playing with them whenever I got the chance. My grandmother was my teacher; she had the most amazing skills. My mother, however, insisted that I focus on my studies first. So, it wasn't until I turned 15 that I officially started working with beads. My education helped me a lot, not just in beading but in understanding how to run a business and work with others.

What is your dream/aspiration?

My biggest dream is to see our cooperative grow and to help more women in our town become financially independent through beading. I want to create a space where we can all come together, share our skills, and keep our traditions alive, passing them down to the next generations.

How has working with Lumily impacted your life?

Working with Lumily has been a positive changer for us. It has given our cooperative exposure to markets we never dreamed of reaching. This partnership has helped us grow our business and has provided a steady income for the women in our cooperative, which is incredibly empowering.

What is your favorite part of your job?

Seeing the women in our cooperative flourish. It's about more than just beading, it's about building a community, sharing our stories through our craft, and seeing our traditions carried forward.

My craft revolves around using sheep wool to create whimsical wool animals, which I then embellish with intricate embroidery. It’s a unique twist on our town’s traditional use of wool.

How did you begin working with your craft?

I grew up surrounded by wool and the art of crafting with it. My mother, grandmother, and aunts, all skilled in wool crafts, were my mentors. As a child, I was fascinated by the process, from shearing the sheep to turning the wool into beautiful creations. I started by helping them with simple tasks, and over time, developed my own style, focusing on whimsical animal figures.

What is your dream/aspiration?

My dream is to open a workshop in my town. I envision it as a creative hub where local artisans can come to work, learn, and develop new skills. I want it to be a place that nurtures creativity and keeps our traditional crafts alive, while also exploring new ideas.

How has working with Lumily impacted your life?

Working with Lumily has given me an incredible opportunity to showcase my creations to a wider audience. It has helped me grow my business and brought me closer to realizing my dream of opening a workshop. The partnership has been a source of financial support and has allowed me to collaborate with other artisans, learning and growing together.

What is your favorite part of your job?

I love the sense of community I feel working alongside my family and the prospect of extending this to more artisans in my workshop.
