This Folk Art Tree of Life kit was inspired by the Mexican Tree of Life (Arbol de la Vida) collection at the Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and was designed by the talented Emma Carlow. 

This Tree of Life is made of unpainted plywood. Enjoy it as is, or paint your very own (painted set shown here is for inspiration only). You will also need paint, markers, or crayons of your choosing. Finished tree is 10.75 x 7.75 inches

Why we love this: The designs of the trees of life are as diverse as the artisans who make them and the villages in which they live. In general, however, trees of life depict the creation story and feature animals, angels, and other characters. Trees of life are made and given as symbols of abundance, fertility and joy. How will you make yours?
