For some reason, I'm having difficulty finding a page for any of those artisan folks who craft little calaveras for all occasions. like a punk band, football team, etc. You always see them for sale at curio shops or weird bookstores for like 200% of what you'd actually pay, but finding their web presence is proving to be more difficult.

some stores which sell them:

fwiw, all the ones I've seen are imported so I doubt the Mexican artisans have web sites.
