Hi, I’m Kathy Cano-Murillo,
The CraftyChica!

Welcome to my CraftyChica® world: Mexican-inspired craft tutorials, creative living, recipes, home decor, travel, storytelling, & entrepreneurship! I’m an artist, author, speaker, and social media content creator. I work in ceramics, create illustrations for greeting cards and stationery items, and more! I’m a fourth-gen maker & a third-gen Mexi-chica from Phoenix, AZ. I launched Crafty Chica® in 2001.

How to work with me!

Where to buy my art: Online at CraftyChicaStore or inside Amor Collective (Phoenix, AZ), product line and books at Barnes & Noble stores. Upcoming appearances and events are here.
