Queen of Creative Collaborations Heart Evangelista often visits Sorsogon where her husband Chiz Escudero serves as governor.

In one of her travels to the province, Heart sourced products for her home decor line called Maison Love Marie.

Her current obsession is handcrafted goods using pili nuts!

Pili is one of the major products of Sorsogon. Aside from being eaten as a snack, the pili nut's hard teardrop-shaped shell can be upcycled into various items.

Check out Heart's precious finds in this gallery.
