Featured Collaboration: Mexico By Hand’s Custom Lotería Set

 

At Loteria Studio, we love helping businesses and designers bring their stories to life through custom lotería sets. Our Custom Lotería service makes it simple for brands, creators, and shops to turn their products, events, and unique style into a game that’s fun, beautiful, and unforgettable.

Today we’re excited to feature Mexico By Hand, a business built from a deep love for Mexican culture, artisans, and tradition.

 

About Mexico By Hand

Mexico By Hand isn’t just a business, it’s a mission. Founded after a life-changing year spent in Michoacán in 2004, the company has spent more than two decades promoting and preserving the work of master artisans across Mexico. Their collection highlights handmade crafts, traditional techniques, and the stories of the artists who create them.

From textiles and pottery to folk art and cultural icons, Mexico By Hand curates items that carry soul, heritage, and history. Their work supports artisans whose craft traditions are at risk of disappearing, and shares those treasures with families around the world.

 

A Custom Lotería Inspired by Real Mexican Folk Art

For this collaboration, Mexico By Hand wanted something special:
A custom lotería that highlighted the actual products they sell.

This made the project truly unique. Each card features a real piece of Mexican folk art, photographed from their collection and transformed into a playful, colorful lotería image. The result is a beautiful way to celebrate artesanía while teaching vocabulary in both English and Spanish.

Some of the featured items included:

  • La Catrina – an iconic symbol of Mexican culture

  • Corazón – a heart representing love, pride, and tradition

  • La Bolsa (Purse) – handmade textile work

  • El Plato (Plate) – vibrant pottery crafted by skilled artisans

Every image connects directly to the pieces Mexico By Hand is known for, making this lotería both educational and deeply meaningful.

 

Designed for Families, Teachers, and Art Lovers

The set includes:

  • Six 8×11 tablas

  • 24 cards featuring real folk art photos

  • Bilingual labels (Spanish + English)

  • Information about the artesanía featured in the game

  • A convenient storage case

It’s a perfect activity for families, classrooms, and anyone who loves Mexican culture. Purchase this set at Mexico by Hand’s website or at the World Folk Market.
