The Crafty Chica DIY Project Library: a collection of fabulous handmade ideas by Kathy Cano-Murillo, the Crafty Chica! Saturday, February 05, 2005Sweetheart Candy Box Awwww...Don't you just love old-fashioned Valentines and candy? Here's a way to make them last forever. Use the box to store love notes and such. BTW - I got the v-card at Archie McPhee. SUPPLIES: Cigar Box Paint, brushes Old Valentine (make a color copy) Various candies White craft glue Varnish DIREX: Paint the box. Glue the picture on the top and apply a thin layer of white glue on top of the picture as well. Use hot glue or ultra tacky glue to attach canies all over. Seal with varnish. It'll look nice and shiny! * By Kathy Cano Murillo, copyright 2005. For more artsy goodness, check out CraftyChica.com * Labels: food crafts, Valentine's Day

I'm a mommy, wifey, artist, author & left-handed middle-child binge crafter Sagittarian. I love chocolate, coffee, and I collect Chihuahua stuff (we have 4 live ones). I have a new product line! I write a syndicated craft column for The Arizona Republic. My 7th craft book comes out next year, as well as my first novel. I make a line of Chicano Pop Art with my hubby and we have sold it all over the country since 1990. Doing my best to live in the moment and savor it all!  
Note to visitors: Hola! This site is the archive of all my past projects for Gannett News Service and The Arizona Republic. These ideas are for personal use only. I make a living as a craft designer, so I will be using these ideas in my published works. If you are thinking of selling or using these ideas for profit, please give respect and "twist" them to make them your own - put your own stamp on them to make them different. It will work out for the best for both of us! Thank you and much respect from one creative person to another! — Kathy Have a burning crafty question? Visit my Ask Crafty Chica blog or drop me a line!
