Hi, I’m Kathy Cano-Murillo,
The Crafty Chica!

Welcome to my Crafty Chica™ world of Latina style DIY including: Crafts, recipes, home decor, travel, storytelling, & entrepreneurship! I’m an artist, author, and speaker. In addition to sharing craft tutorials, I also 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 as a way to bring Latinocentric crafts to mainstream audiences. I hope you find mucho inspiration here! Let’s work together!
