I am so excited to share this guest written edition of the Mexico Retold, Mexicanize Your Life series, put together by the fantastically talented and wonderful Justine Standaert of Justine Justine. When I first clapped eyes on Justine’s work, I loved it! She combines local, often recycled materials with stunning design to create really gorgeous jewellery (check out her site for amazing and affordable Christmas gifts). So when she contacted me to suggest that she might like to be part of the Mexicanize Your Life series, I jumped at the opportunity. We decided that something Christmassy would be perfect and when the content arrived in my inbox this morning, I actually yelped out loud, I loved it so much! I hope you guys love it too!

Justine Standaert is a Belgian Jewelry Designer that has been living in Mexico for almost 10 years. She makes her eco-friendly jewelry in her home-based studio in Oaxaca. On her website,  www.JustineJustine.com.mx she shares more free tutorials!
