"Kathy Cano Murillo strikes us as one of those people who, stranded on a desert island with nothing but a volleyball, a deck of playing cards and some coconuts, would not only craft a rescue vehicle and distress signal but whip up a spiffy castaway-themed wardrobe to wear as she did so. And she would be having a great time. And so would you. Visit the Arizona Republic contributor's site to get the craft fever yourself."

Mother's Day Memo Holders



This project doesn't come out in the newspaper until Saturday, but since Mother's Day is Sunday, I thought I'd post it early. I'll have complete directions later, but basically I took some wood blocks in different sizes, drilled a hole in the tops with a Dremel, inserted a bamboo skewer (glued it in place) and painted it all. I then embellished the blocks with pictures and cositas (little things) and then added an alligator clip at the top of each one. And there you have it! Memo holders perfect for Mom!

As far as the images to put on there, you can put pictures, quotes, headlines, trims, buttons - anything you want!!
