I started "My Mercado Mexican Imports" because I love spending time shopping in Mexico for my own home and thought others would want the opportunity to add colorful, festive Mexican items to their own.

I live along the Texas-Mexico border in the Rio Grande Valley - it's as far South Texas as you can get. So it doesn't take me but a few minutes to cross the Rio Grande and I'm in Mexico.

All along the border you'll find fabulous folk art created by talented artisans throughout Mexico - from Mexican Christmas decorations like tin and straw ornaments, from woven handbags to wool ponchos, from handcrafted pottery to traditional Mexican fiesta dresses.

I always have Mexican dresses, shopping bags, pottery dishes and home decor in stock. If you love playing the popular Mexican game Loteria or making artwork from the colorful game cards, I have plenty in stock. Plus, if you enjoy decorating your garden with Talavera pottery animals I have a wide selection for you to pick from.

If you want your holidays to have a fiesta theme, how about decorating your home with handcrafted Mexican Loteria Christmas ornaments?

If you're in the market for something in particular that you may have seen while on vacation but forgot to buy - feel free to let me know. I'm always in Mexico and will search for what you need.
