Waking Up in the Land of Glitter door Kathy Cano-Murillo

I picked this up because I loved the title. This was a really fun read. I liked all the characters, and really liked how they all showed personal growth through the story by embracing their inner crafter.

Crafty Chica's guide to artful sewing : fabu-low-sew… door Kathy Cano-Murillo

The author certainly has quite a bright personality, and it shows in the book's finished projects. She had some interesting ideas for reusing or embellishing store-bought items.

There were only three project chapters (bags, clothes, and household items), and the projects seemed to be just very slight modifications on the exact same instructions so there wasn't much variety. The frequent quote blocks from random people didn't fit, especially since several were negative about sewing.

I think this book would be fine for an absolute beginner with a sewing machine.… (meer)

Crafty Chica's art de la soul : glittery ideas to… door Kathy Cano-Murillo

I love this book! If books could be desserts, this book would be a yummy fried ice cream with a cherry on top.

I love this book so much that I often check it out from the library just so i can flip through the book and look at the pictures.

The project ideas are wonderful as well. A little South West/Mexican flavor, lots of beauty. And the projects don't look Martha Stewart hard, but something that anyone could do.

The book flows, has lovely pictures accompanying every projects, gives great directions on how to make things.

I have to actually buy this book for myself someday.… (meer)
