Other elements from the forests that they use are pine cones and pine trunks to create animals, household utensils and curious cabins.

The artisans of this region also make beautiful basketry work.

A good place to buy the colorful handicrafts of the region is the Museum and Handicraft Market of Mazamitla, which is located next to the main church. Here you can find wooden toys, key rings, blanket clothing with colorful embroidery and attractive ceramics.

In addition, in the market you will also find typical sweets, the delicious cajeta (a slow-cooked Mexican caramel sauce) and fruit preserves.
