Due to Santa Maria’s natural resources of wool and clay, the handicraft industry consist of pottery, ceramics, wool sweaters, ornate sheets, blankets, towels and other embroidery. Homespun garments include coarse woolen jerseys, embroidered linen shirts and embroidered women's jackets. Similarly, straw hats, baskets and various other objects traditionally made from wood, fish scales, corn flask and metal are sold as souvenirs.
