Once again, the Crafty Chica shows how to make cute, colorful, and easy crafts to add a Latin flair to your home. As always, a bit of background on the craft is presented before you dive in. Love all the colors and glitter..gave me inspiration for some Halloween crafts to make.

I liked this book, but wholeheartedly dislike the term "funky".

More crafts and art projects loaded with chica inspiration! Especially like the LP cover purse!
