In Mexico, where traditions run deep, families gather to celebrate deceased family members and friends. This celebration begins November 1st and is the day to honor the deceased innocent or young children and continues thru November 2nd where adult loved ones who have passed are honored.
The Day of the Dead celebration is a time to remember and connect with those who have gone. Some families have picnics, parties, and camp at the graveside of the deceased. It is also traditional to build alters in remembrance of those who have died in the home. In ancient times, people actually brought the skulls of loved ones into the home to remember and be close to those whose souls have moved on. It is from this tradition that you now see the sugar skulls as immersed in the holiday.Etsy’s Best Kept Secret is a team of artists, creators, designers, and makers who all met while tending shops at Etsy.
