Christmas Ornaments

I know.  It is only July.  And too hot to be thinking about Christmas.  But Casa de Esperanza has new Christmas ornaments to sell this year.

As with most of our suppliers for the store, there is a story.  We met this man who does beautiful things with wood.  As I looked at his things, I stood in awe at the intricacies of many of his products.  We began to ask questions.  I knew I wanted him to make something for the Casa de Esperanza store.  He is a brand new Christian.  He said he wanted to be able to make beautiful items for ministries to help them make money.  He makes ornaments and other things for World Gospel Outreach, Shalom in Choluteca and other ministries.  Now, he makes ornaments for Casa de Esperanza as well.

There are two different ornaments, both tear-drop shaped.  Both have a starfish cut out.  One ornament has Casa de Esperanza burnt into it.  And the other Casa de Esperanza has been cut from another piece of wood and securely fastened onto the ornament.  One child at a time is burnt into the back of both ornaments.   They are polished and sanded and very pretty.   Ornaments will sell for $5.00 each.

We also have some wooden keychains and bookmarks, all of which say Casa de Esperanza.  We will also have more items from this artist soon.
