The Crafty Chica DIY Project Library: a collection of fabulous handmade ideas by Kathy Cano-Murillo, the Crafty Chica! Wednesday, October 14, 2009Dia de los Muertos paintings     I recently bought 8 canvases and decided to try and paint one a night. Well, I really got into and did 2-3 a night! My wrist is shot, but it was worth it. It feels so good to stretch out of my normal range. I tried to break old habits and experiment with challenging (to me) techniques. I highly encourage giving it a try! We have gobs of Day of the Dead events coming up and I'm thinking of making prints of these. Right now they are all hanging in the house and I love the color they add. Argh, wrist hurts, signing off! ** MY NEW BOOK: "Crafty Chica's Guide to Artful Sewing: Fabu-Low-Sew Ideas for the Everyday Crafter". See the new line of Crafty Chica products at HERE Amazon.com!!

Mommy, wifey, artist, author, left-handed middle-child Sagittarian. Former newspaper reporter. I have a new craft product line, a new book: CRAFTY CHICA'S GUIDE TO ARTFUL SEWING. My first novel, WAKING UP IN THE LAND OF GLITTER pubs March 1st, 2010). 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!
