Make your own Nichos (mini altar).

Traditionally Nichos in Mexico were made to honour patron saints. In our workshop choose an image of someone you would like to honour. Then get crafty with embossing tin, beads, braid, washi tape, paint pens and more to create a colourful mini altar to take home or give as a gift. 

Please bring a photo/image (approx. 7cm x 7cm) for your Nichos. Images of Frida supplied.
