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. ( )

I love this book! It has great and easy ideas to brighten up the darkest corner of your house. She adds personal touches that bring a lively feel to the book. Her books are inspirational, while you can try and copy them exactly, I believe she means for you to find a way for them to mean something to you. Your own experience will help you create something that reflects you and your family life. ( )

Anyone who has been to Los Angeles' famed Olvera Street will undoubtedly recognize where many of Murillo's inspiration comes from. I originally checked this book out as a way to make my small house thump with the vibrancy of my Angeleno heritage and while there are a great many ideas in it that I feel I could reasonably accomplish, some of the crafts are not accessible to those who live outside of a good Latin area. I think if I lived in the Midwest I would have a much harder time being able to spontaneously do these crafts (you know, without buying little Lucha Libre figurines from eBay and the like!) While I do stock up when I head back home, sometimes my homesickness for a good Latin craft strikes me on the fly and I am missing that all-too-critical ingredient. ( )
