Your question is really too broad to answer well.
Every country in Latin America has MANY places where you can find exactly the kind of things you're looking for.
I'll tell you about *ONE* of 'em....Guadalajara. Especially neighborhoods on the outskirts of the city, like Tlaqapaque and Tonala. In Tlaqapaque you can find DOZENS of shops selling some of the most distinctively unique home decor items imaginable. Some specialize in wrought iron decor, others specialize in textiles: tapestries, drapery, etc. There's one magnificent shop that's filled with fanciful tile and ceramic sculptures. There's another that sells nothing but those leather tub chairs (I don't remember what they're called) that are so prevalent in Guadalajara.
The town of Patzcuaro has a similar diversity, and there's towns with unique specialties: like Metepec, near Mexico City, where you find the most spectacular Arbol de Vida sculptures (Tree of Life).
Other countries have similar towns: like Sarchi Costa Rica (known for its fancifully painted oxcarts) and San Blas Panama (known for its intricate molas). |

Many Countries in Latin America offer unique handcrafted items from Mexico to Chile you really can´t go wrong. Oxaca in Mexico is a very good start, great food handcrafts and friendly people as you will find everywhere in Latin America. The term Latin America normally refers to Mexico, Central America and South America. Have fun. |
