"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."

Custom Dinnerware Set

This is a dinnerware set my kids painted for our Heard Museum exhibit. So many people loved it and said they wanted to visit a local paint-on-pottery place and make a set. How fun would it be to surprise grandparents with a set painted by their grandkids?

Or a mom and dad painting a set for their grown-up kids?

Better yet - make a set for yourself! Fine china has nothing on this!

To do this, you'll bisqueware, ceramic paints, glaze, brushes and a place to fire it all. Look in your local directory for a pottery place to do all this! If you don't want to go freeform, you can use stencils.

Special thanks to Duncan Enterprises for springing for all the supplies, bisqueware, and paints!
